16 Stories That Prove a Dad’s Love Is the Most Powerful Magic in the World
Without a doubt, moms are an integral part of a child’s life, but the most vivid and crazy childhood memories are often associated with dads. They’re like those heroes who appear out of nowhere and bring adventures along. If a father decides to make his son or daughter happy, nothing can stop him—neither the weather, nor fatigue, nor common sense. And sometimes, it’s those very moments that warm our hearts for a lifetime.
One year when I was in elementary school, we got several feet of snow for winter break (unusual for where I lived). My dad took an entire day to pack all the snow next to our porch into a snow slide. It started from our porch and went around the corner of our house.
My brother and I played on the snow slide all day, getting occasional pushes from our dad as he continually repacked it. It’s one of my best winter memories.
We moved to another city. It hardly ever snows here. The kids really miss all those snowball fights and building snowmen. When our 8-year-old son started complaining again about wanting snow, my husband sat for a minute, then dressed up and went out.
He was gone for half an hour. Then, a massive truck pulls up at the house. 2 guys get out and unload a machine that makes snow! I’ve never seen my children this happy!
