NOAH

NOAH

Good morning, sleepy head.
I've been up for a while,

Standing by your bed as your dreams made you smile,
Wondering where your mind goes when your eyes close,
And wishing I knew the worlds you travel through.

I know soon you’ll be living your own story,
And there will be chapters without me.
But life is a journey, and it is quite a ride
With many roles to be played, many parts to be tried.

The world calls me Daniel, but I’m Daddy only to you,
And of everything I’ve done, it’s a real dream job come true.
Now I’m thinking about the things you, Noah, might do,
Where you might end up, what’s in store for you.

So before we rise and shine, listen to me
Tell you what I think you’ll grow up to be…

Good morning, sleepy head.
I've been up for a while,

Standing by your bed as your dreams made you smile,
Wondering where your mind goes when your eyes close,
And wishing I knew the worlds you travel through.

I know soon you’ll be living your own story,
And there will be chapters without me.
But life is a journey, and it is quite a ride
With many roles to be played, many parts to be tried.

The world calls me Daniel, but I’m Daddy only to you,
And of everything I’ve done, it’s a real dream job come true.
Now I’m thinking about the things you, Noah, might do,

So before we rise and shine, listen to me
Tell you what I think you’ll grow up to be…

Premier danseur noble:
Noah

I reckon I just need a second –
a couple of clicks – to google pliés, pirouettes and piqués.
You’ve been perfecting for ages these French-sounding tricks,
Now on your tiptoes you’re conquering the world’s biggest stages.
And, Noah, as you gracefully take the last bow,
The wowed crowd shouts, “ENCORE! We want MORE!”

Who could tell that your old man still cleans up so well,
I’m all suited up and just GLOWING with pride.
Yes, the premiere’s here and I’m getting choked up
While enjoying the show from the very first row.
No matter how old, I'm your Daddy first of all,
And watching you spin, I'll cry tears of joy –
Because I’ll always be proud of my boy.

A GIFT FILLED WITH FUN!

Is this book really emotional?

Many of our readers from around the world have chosen to share the emotion this book evoked in their dads. So much so that we were able to create many compilations of dads crying when they receive their personalized book, many of them, for their first Father's Day.



Emotion is truly at the heart of this book. Daddy gets to see himself with his child on the cover. Then, he reads the beautiful dedication that you wrote. And even if he doesn't shed a tear after that, your message of love is sure to have a strong impact on him.

This is a book all about the relationship between him and his child. The bond they have and will continue to share are the focal point of every story you choose.


And dad isn’t the only one who is likely to get choked up. After spending time creating this heartfelt gift, there’s a good chance you’ll be affected as well!


So what do we recommend? Get the tissues ready (for the both of you)!
