“I'm not trying to be a fair and understanding Dad... I'm trying to be a Great Father. Because at times fairness and understanding are superseded by Protection and Preparation.”

“The greatest reward of fatherhood for me is simply watching my son smile at me. In life I cherish the subtle moments more than any of the major ones. The rationale is simple; for every major milestone we reach there is an expectation to celebrate them all with good reason. But I live life for the intimate moments...the moments that can slip past us if we are not aware...the moments that seem so ordinary to us until one day we wake up yearning to relive them again.”
Robby Silk
“I was asked the other day what it was like to become father? It’s a moments so raw and real that you really have to experience it yourself. For me it was the most unifying moment of my marriage to date. It cannot be topped in its pure magnitude, power, and emotion. If you didn't know what it meant to love before you cannot help yourself after it’s done. You will be in awe at the power of a single woman, the resilience of an infant, and be swept off your feet at the power of God and nature.”
“I want to lead my children by example. I want to teach them that dreams should never be forgotten, that part of true happiness is being in love with what you do. But one lesson I want my kids to remember after I’m gone is that the fight for love and passion is something worth dying for.”
Matt Gannon
“Becoming a father is not a 15 minute commitment... Its an opportunity to influence your continued existance...”
