That's why "bonding", "spend time with" is much better word to use. <br /><br />Search on google, bing or yahoo or whatever search engine "dating your children" vs "bonding time with your kids". <br /><br />I'm sorry.

He was a hard working man. Did his best. And I adored him. He never wanted much out of life. But my father gave me real quality time, but not quantity. I will always be so indebted to Dad for his fine example . Yes, Fathers do matter in a girl's life. And I can see, Josie too has a great Dad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-5936609299445784632015-09-02T18:06:23.485-05:002015-09-02T18:06:23.485-05:00He is 5 years younger than me.

Was it from his own father's influence ? . Was it his mother ? He is such a positive person. And so loving and kind and gives his very best everyday. Was this from his personal relationship with God?

It was painful to read. And it was harder to look at those photos of father and daughter without crying. In Gil, I think Kelly has found all the fine qualities her father had possessed. What a beautiful thing! What a great find ! For Gil truly is a man who has truly given to the children the same love that Kelly had once knew as a child, which could be seen in the tennis game.
