So OK, it's your special big Four-O birthday But don't expect me to be obsequious and fawning You, being you, can't possibly be a good example So do try, at least, to serve as a warning

It is said that insincere apologies can be detected while heart-felt apologies melt away all grievances, anger and hatred. Felt with all my heart I'm sooo sorry Apologies Sorry Soz so so So Sorry

A father is someone who can't get on the phone, in the bathroom or out of debt.

When you gaze upon the lovely sight. Of twins, arm in arm, asleep at night. Think not that the house has been doubly messed. But that you, as parents, have been doubly blessed.

The best inheritance a father can leave his children is a good example.

Dad - a son's first hero, a daughter's first love.

This card is sent to cheer you As you're confined to bed I'm sure it'll feel all worthwhile In the happier days ahead.
