Fathers...

Sometimes the poorest man leaves his children the richest inheritance. ~Ruth E. Renkel

I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection. ~Sigmund Freud

When I was a kid, I said to my father one afternoon, 'Daddy, will you take me to the zoo?' He answered, 'If the zoo wants you, let them come and get you.' ~Jerry Lewis

A man's children and his garden both reflect the amount of weeding done during the growing season. ~Unknown

By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong. ~Charles Wadsworth

Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's that I love and admire and for all that will be fathers one day...especially to my Dad, my brothers, and my incredible husband! I love you!
