What is a Father ? ……. For Emma

A father is the person who will love you unconditionally , he will fight with his last breath to be a part of a child’s life.

A father will hold your hand, stoke your head and tell everything will be fine when you are scared or sad…

A father will try and teach you right from wrong and hopefully to make the right choices and choose the right path in life as you grow older.

A father will be your best friend a person you never have to be scared of to tell them what you have done wrong or feeling , and if you are wrong he will try and guide you with his life knowledge and experiences to understand people make mistakes and we learn from them.

A father will teach you how to respect and treat other people , how all people are people no matter where they come from…

A father will be on the side line when you play sports and will tell you ,you are a champ no matter how your team did

A father will teach you it’s ok to cry and be sad , it’s good to let your emotions out if you feel you need to

A father will always try and fix something even if he has no clue what he is doing but boy will he try

A father will comfort you and stick a plaster on your leg when you fall of your bike , but he will encourage to get right back on and try again

A father will teach you to respect other peoples time as it is as valuable as your own

A father will tell you to treat a lady as a lady if she is and acts like one , if not he will tell you to move on

A father will always make sure he can give you the best he can afford

A father will take that 2 am call when you have been drinking and can’t get home and come get you , and tell you don’t tell your mum! Lol

A father will try and teach you the value of money , what little you have

A father will teach you material things mean nothing , having a good and supportive family is so much better

A father will teach you to be happy and follow your dreams as nothing is impossible if you want it enough

A father will make sure children know who their family is and makes sure they have a bond

A father will discipline you if you are out of order

A father will always be waiting for that call , hi dad guess what I did today and how ever big or small will praise those achievements

A father will look after you , maybe make you eat some junk food on a outing but will for make sure you laugh sitting on the side of the road sharing a bag of chips

A father will ensure you get the best education you can get but still allow you to follow your heart and dreams

A father will teach you your heart will break at times , but time again is the best healer…

I father will be up with you the whole night if you are not feeling well and comfort….

A father will spend each free minute of his life with his child as time is something you can never get back

A father will always try and give you whatever you want , but he will also allow you to grow up and become the man / men your are destined to be and look back and be proud of you always in each achievement and step of your life…

He will love you and care for you always if he is allowed to do so

Well these are my thoughts as a forced absent father to our little men……
