Tim McGraw: '...my little girl says 'I love you dad''

June 17th, 2007 by Glenn Sacks, MA for Fathers & Families

"I'm sittin' here with my kids and my wife
And everything that I hold dear in my life
We say grace and thank the lord
Got so much to be thankful for
Then it's up the stairs and off to bed and my little girl says
'I haven't had my story yet.'
And everything weighin' on my mind disappears just like that
When she lifts her head off her pillow and says,
'I love you dad'."

I love the last lines of country singer Tim McGraw's song "Grown Men Don't Cry." On Youtube.com somebody put together a nice photo montage of dads and their kids, set to the song. To hear the song, click here.

    Glenn (and Tim McGraw): Thanks. I think these good-stuff articles have more merit than most people realize. We get so bogged down on the bad that we cannot see what good does exist: That is a problem!

    [...] Country & Western singer Tim McGraw writes many songs about fatherhood and family, and his words and observations are often dead-on. One example is his song Grown Men Don't Cry--see my blog post Tim McGraw: '...my little girl says 'I love you dad'. [...]
