Thank You Papa

I could afford to be a careless toddler, because a pair of alert eyes were always on me. Even now,  across thousands of miles, I know, he still watches over me. I am lucky :)

Its so hard to be a Father; 
You cannot be wrong. You always have to be strong. You have to be a role-model, constantly resonating between the tough man who wants to discipline the kid and the soft-hearted man who is the first person to console the kid when he falters.
While moms get all the attention, fathers stay in the background and overlook the growth of the Family.
Mothers make Homes, Fathers build Families.
For all this and much more which I can't put in words....
Thank you Papa...!
