This year the theme for Father's Day at the Schelle home is hands. I could not find a card that really told Rob how important he is to the kids and how much they look up to him and how grateful we are for him....so I wrote my own poem and made my own card!
My Daddy's Hands
From the moment I came into the world my little hands knew yours.
Your strong hands were there to hold, protect, and comfort me.
As I grow your hands are there to teach me at each step.
From learning how to roll and crawl to walking and leaping.
Your hands always not far behind to catch me if I fall.
Your hands are my guide in life to teach me along the way.
How to treat others and never hit in hate.
Your hands are there each night to tuck me into bed and gently rub my head.
Your hands show me the power of a loving touch and how to throw a ball.
Your hands are there to keep me from harm and always show the way.
Your hands will be there at times that will be rough.
Your hands will be there to clap when I make your proud.
Your hands will show me right from wrong and be there to pick me up when I fall.
Today I hold my hand out to you for guidance and support.
So remember these little hands of mind as I begin to grow...
One day you will want to look back and remember just how small these little hands once were and all I had to learn.
Your hands hold the world to me and one day I will know how much love your hands held for me and how they helped me grow!
