God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle’s flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it … Dad

I want to wish all you dad’s (to be) out there a happy and very special Father’s Day.
Now I’m off to find some duct tape. They look so cute together, I kinda want to freeze the moment.

Plus, it’ll be nice and quiet around here.

Is it Father’s Day in The Netherlands, too?
@Karohemd:
It sure is!
Yet another US import. There’s no such thing in Germany, only the inofficial version on Ascension Day.
@Karohemd:
Actually, Father’s Day has been celebrated for thousands of years so it’s not an American holiday seeing as America wasn’t ‘founded’ ’til 1776/1787. Father’s Day celebration started 4000 years ago, to be precise. In Babylon.
Such beautiful photos and a lovely sentiment to go along with them. Happy Father’s Day!
I know you don’t share very much about your personal life on the web, so thank you for letting us peek into such private and precious moments.
They look wonderful together. The love jumps off the screen. Gorgeous photos, Kay.
Beautiful Kay, simply beautiful :)
Adorable.
J-man looks so happy and R is just a natural dad.
Beautiful family.
It is amazing how gracefully you handle comments that I would handle very differently. ;-) People are not so open to life as you are — you are such a refreshing ray of light, Kay. I hope it was a most wonderful Father’s day – and to see you finding joy despite all the challenges your family has been through lately is so inspirational.
You actually gve me goosebumps…quit it! ;)
Nice work Kay.
Enjoy your photography (I’m a Nikonian myself), blogs and recipes.
Cheers
