In anticipation for Father’s Day this Sunday, we celebrate our wonderful dads in this week’s edition of Make It a Splendid Week!

Me and My Dad

I love my dad because he always buys toys for me,
and plays board games with me, like Connect Four.
 
I love my dad because he lets me sleep with him,
and makes hats for me
that have my name on them.
 
I love my dad as big as the sun!
He’s my BEST dad in the WORLD!
