Around The Web In A Dozen Links: June 2008

Are you ready to bless that father in your life? I hope so. Today’s 12 link tour around-the-web will give you the tools you’ll need for a sucessful celebration with “dad“.As you know, being a dad in todays society is a difficult task. The pressure to work hard to support a family, be a good husband, and keep the roll as a fun-loving father weighs heavy on the hearts of many. So, lets get started and take this tour and make plans to bless dads socks off!

We’ll start with the story of Father’s Day. Just visit this link and read about how this day of celebration began. It’s an interesting story filled with lots of inspiration, not to mention the reminder to acknowledge all men who act as a father figure in our lives (stepfathers, uncles, grandfathers, and adult male friends). Its a wonderful month to flood our fathers with

Father’s Day gifts, Father’s Day cards, and much more!

Let’s talk about getting the kids involved… wouldn’t it be great to make something special for dad? Try making a Father’s Day book, or post card. How about trying a special Father’s Day recipe or jigsaw puzzle. I’m sure you will find that dads will love it all! He’ll even love a special virtual Father’s Day tie. Just have fun celebrating!!!

On a more serious note, we all agree that a father needs to be well equipped for the job of “daddy“. It’s a special roll. This is why I have added this section to the tour. In my opinion, not only should dad be given a Father’s Day “Survival kit” from their children, but also some spiritual inspiration from you. Thankfully there are many on-line scripture-based devotionals that can be set up to pop into his e-mail Inbox. However, I know of one in particular that seems to grab the attention of most men. The weblink is All Pro Dad. This is a great site dedicated to dad’s of all children (homeschooled or not) with devotions and stories from professional sport figures. It provides daily inspiration to help strengthen relationships with one another, as well as information on upcoming “dad” conferences and much more.Of course, if you have a politically minded man in your home, then you might want to try Family Research Council. They also have a e-mail delivery system. Family Research Council is a wonderful website that is dedicated to keep families informed and educated on the latest issues involving the rights of parents, family, faith and freedom.

Dad’s are great! Be sure to fill his day with some great memories. Love him, squeeze him, kiss him, and bless him. He deserves your best. I leave you with this Father’s Day quote…
