Because Your Daddy Loves You

I read this story to my son tonight for the first time. Being a parent is never easy and this book is a reminder that you always love your children. It reminds me of reading “I’ll love you forever” as a kid with my parents.

Got this book for my son's 32nd birthday. He is a new Dad for the first time and totally enthalled and in love with his baby. I added a meaningful inscription and he just loved it!

We first checked this book out at the library, but after several times I just bought her a copy. It's a very sweet book with simple words and familiar scenes. She can basically recite it now. When her daddy is out of town she almost always chooses it as her bedtime story. Daddy approves and it's one of his favorites to read to her.

This is a wonderful book, not only for the loving ways the father interacts with his child, but also to serve as a gentle reminder to harried parents of other ways to be. Sometimes we all need to dig deeper into our souls to find yet another bit of patience for our children. This father reminds us how to turn away from those knee-jerk reactions to the normal needs of a child and continue to be loving, kind, generous, and helpful to our children. A beautiful, simple, poignant book!

My mom got this book for my husband right before our daughter was born... He loves it and it is exactly the way he is! The dad is so patient and understanding, and I cry every time I read it. It's such a sweet book to give a new dad!
