Happy Father's Day 2016: Gift Your Dad a Delicious Breakfast in Bed

He wrapped you in his arms and shushed you back to sleep when you woke up crying in the middle of the night. He whirled you high in the sky, pushed you on the swing when mom was too scared to let you embrace the risk. He tugged you next to his chest and helped you make sense of the chaos around. While she nurtured and protected, he held that tiny, little hand and took you out to brave the storm. He didn't shrink away from tidying your mess nor did he refuse whenever mom needed a break. Yes, we're talking about that carefree guy who turned into a man the minute your tiny steps rocked his world. A man once good with only half-cooked food (mostly burnt), soon put on that apron and didn't shy away from packing your lunchbox. While we mostly and usually go overboard with mommy's niceties, let us not forget about the unconditional warmth of our dearest daddy as well.Fathers have long been associated with all things crazy and frivolous. You dreamt of building castles in sand and he took you to the beach, spending the entire afternoon building some with you. He became your fancy knight in shining armour, or the one to give you the very first ride of your life - on his back. He sneaked in those decadent candies or ice lollies without mum's notice, and can we ever forget him being our guinea pig? Aren't fathers a bundle of joy? From watching your favourite cartoon show together to not minding dressing up as one for your birthdays, he is the one who is never ashamed or shy of doing the most for your little, sparkling smile.
