IT’S FATHER’S DAY!!
By
Chanelle Sealy
“To all my fathers, step fathers, dads, pop-pops, baby daddies
and dead beats. “Please take today to reflect on your children.”
Children are flowers who need water, sun, light and love (and
bees to make them grow).
Today is never too late to start. Mom is not enough alone. We
need your help to grow better children. Children who are quick to pick up a book instead of a gun. Children that respect each other. Children
that respect them self. Fathers make children whole. We need you fathers to teach us, to be proud of us, to love us, to help us, to show
us right from wrong. Teach your sons to be strong but caring men. Teach your daughters to honor and respect their husbands.
Babies need daddies.
Boys and girls need daddies
Teenagers need daddies
Men and women need daddies
We need you to stand your place in our lives. To all my fathers, step fathers, dads, pa-pa please know you can still be a
positive part of your children’s life from jail, from prison. Even if you’re not with mom, if you can’t pay child support, if you’re not
perfect, or make mistakes. You are allowed to fall, stumble and even cry.
HAPPY FATHERS DAY!
