The Steps of a Dad
There are no instructions on being a father
No matter what is written in a book
You have to be there and experience it
One step was all it took
When our father stepped out and left us alone
You stepped in and made our house a home
You came into our life and became our dad
And gave us something we never had
You are easy to talk to, you know what to say
You stepped up and was there when the other walked away
When we need male guidance and a little correction
You are there to provide us with love and direction
We thank you for showing how much you care
And for always being more than fair
When things are right and even when wrong
We're glad we have you to lean on
The difference you have made and what you did
By watching us grow from being a kid
Has left a positive influence in our life
You married our mom and made her your wife
One step at a time was how it was done
Our family is complete, for we now are one
