In each stage of our lives, we need to hear our fathers saying special things to us-sometimes in words, sometimes through touch, always by example. Dad's influence in our lives has been so great. This book is for fathers who want to relate to their children better, children whose fathers were never available, mothers who want to encourage their husbands, sons and daughters who want to say "thank you" to the man who gave them so much. A Dad's Blessing will encourage readers' hearts and challenge them to continue the blessing with their own children. Among the wise blessings from Dad are:

• "I loved you before I saw you"
• "I will teach you right from wrong."
• "I sure love Mom."
• "Let's play"
• "I'm here for you."
• "I'm sorry. Will you forgive me."
• "You can't keep God-or life-on your schedule."
• "You don't have to perform to please me."
• "Let me tell you about those hormones."
• "I'm so proud of you."
