“And the cat’s in the cradle and the silver spoon, Little boy blue and the man in the moon, “When you coming home, son?” “I don’t know when,” But we’ll get together then, Dad, We’re gonna have a good time then.” – Harry Chapin in the song, Cats In the Cradle

As part of the Father’s Day holiday happening on June 16th, AIP Marketing Alliance wants to take a few moments to wish all of the Dads out there a very relaxing and enjoyable Sunday in celebration of this annual event. Like with our Moms, AIP Marketing Alliance’s employees took a moment to share some thoughts about their Dads in the video in this blog.

Before we get to those memories and wishes, AIPMA also wants to share a couple of famous quotes about Dads that you are welcome to share at your gatherings or to remember that special place Dad, Papa, or Grandpa held within your heart.

• “Dad: A son’s first hero, a daughter’s first love.” – Unknown
• “The older I get, the smarter my father seems to get.” – Tim Russert
• “A dad is someone who wants to catch you when you fall. Instead, he picks you up, brushes you off and lets you try again.” – Unknown
• “My father didn’t do anything unusual. He only did what dads are supposed to do – be there.” – Max Lucado
• “A father is the one friend upon whom we can always rely. In the hour of need, when all else fails, we remember him upon whose knees we sat when children, and who soothed our sorrows; and even though he may be unable to assist us, his mere presence serves to comfort and strengthen us.” – Émile Gaboriau
• “A father is a man who expects his son to be as good a man as he meant to be.” – Frank A. Clark
• “Being a great father is like shaving. No matter how good you shaved today, you have to do it again tomorrow.” – Reed Markham
• “Dads are like chocolate chip cookies; they may have chips or be totally nutty, but they are sweet and make the world a better place, especially for their children.” – Hillary Lytle

Let’s see what our employees also had to say about Dad this year.

On Sunday, AIPMA’s team hopes you will get together then (on Sunday), and have a good time then, by sharing some fond memories with your fathers or their lasting positive memories that they have left in your lives. Have a Happy Father’s Day!
