One of the things I love most about my husband is seeing what an amazing Dad he is. He always gives it his all and does everything he can to create wonderful memories for all three of our children. Seeing him interact with them on a daily basis and seeing the bond that he has with them, especially my son, makes me so happy.
A father/son bond is a special thing and I know that they have so many activities that they like to do just the two of them. To little boys…Dads are just COOL!
Both my husband and I love snuggling in bed and reading books to Hayden and many times while I’m giving the twins their baths and getting them ready for bed, I’ll hear Hayden pick out a book and bring it to his Dad to read. I was so excited when I received a new book written by Ahmet Zappa called Because I’m Your Dad.
Ahmet Zappa is the son of late rock musician/composer Frank Zappa and, as he puts it, “My awesome mother, Gail.” In addition to developing several television shows and movies – including “The Odd Life of Timothy Green” – he also wrote the book Because I’m Your Dad. The book is both a tribute to his happy childhood and a promise to his daughter, Halo. Ahmet grew up with a learning disability and now writes books to help children discover how wonderful reading can be.
Zappa knows just how cool it is to be a Dad and this is the perfect book for your little one to read with his Dad!
Because I’m your dad, you can have spaghetti for breakfast, French toast for dinner, and rocky road ice cream in the bathtub.
In a book that is both playful and loving, a father expresses his hopes and dreams for a one-of-a-kind relationship with his child. Whimsical monster characters bring the silly and sweet scenes to life and keep the book universal. The book’s ending, a moving tribute to the author’s father, guarantees intergenerational appeal.
Because I’m your dad, I will do all of these things for you and more . . .
because that’s what my dad did for me.
I have to admit, as I listened to my husband read this book to my son as they cuddled on the couch and heard the ending, I couldn’t help but crying. It’s such a sweet book and I think it would be a perfect gift for Father’s Day.
My son absolutely loved the book and it reminded him of all the silly things he does with his Dad and inspired him to think of some new things to do also!
The perfect thing to go with the Because I’m Your Dad book are these super cute coupons. I know I’ll be printing these for my son to give my husband.
