#TheGallery – Week 62 – Dads.

image

As a father of 5, I love being a dad.  It’s one of the most magical things that’s happened to me.  But I don’t think I’d be enjoying it half as much if I didn’t have my own dad to draw on.  Not literally, obviously.  I don’t pop round with a Sharpie! But my dad has always been there to look to for inspiration. “Would dad do this?” is a valuable question and one that has guided my steps.
Here he is with his youngest grandson. I hope to be as useful to mine as he has to me.

    That’s lovely. Guess you have passed the “am I grown up?” test!

    A great approach to being a dad, my dad has assumed the same role as a grandad as he did as a dad – he just winds up our children but being stupid :
