Hello and Happy Fathers' Day to the men who love a single mom! Today we celebrate the men who are involved and actively raising their children. As German illustrator and poet Wilhelm Busch stated, 'Becoming a father is easy, but being one can be tough'. So ... here's to the dads that tough it out, the ones that stay and love and grow their offspring. Men with integrity! My dad is one such man! Thanks Dad, for loving your children and your grandchildren!
Let's also celebrate the men who are not the biological dads but step in and teach a child to fish, take a niece to the daddy-daughter dance, provide a trip to Disney World. The men who cut the grass or shovel the snow for a single mom who gets a bit behind on her chores. The ones who accept as payment a 'thank you' and the look of appreciation and relief, for having been thought of and helped. For all the men who want your child to grow up happy and knowing they are important, we salute you.
My wish this Father's Day is for all children to have a positive male role model in their life. So single moms, remember, blood doesn't guarantee a positive male figure. If you can not secure what your child needs within your family you can look beyond your immediate family for a father figure who can show by example just what it takes to be a man.
Happy Father's Day!
