203 Dads With Their Babies Showing That Fatherhood Brings Out The Best In Men
Happy Father's Day! There is no question that fathers play a very important role in their kid's lives. And it is also a very challenging role. Some fathers even give up on fatherhood, but others don't. They teach, they protect, they love, they are there for their children, and most importantly, they have a special bond with their children that no one else has. In honor of all the fathers in this world who made us who we are today, we share a list, compiled by Bored Panda, of beautiful photos showing fathers holding their babies.
Do you have a picture of a father holding his baby? Add it to the list and don't forget to vote!

Dad: "So... are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Son: "Yes! Pooping!"

The realization that you truly love someone……inexplainable until it happens to you! This is beautiful...

I think it has been a difficult delivery by the look of the baby's skull.......sheer and utter relief after expecting the worst maybe?
Jude 9 years ago
Most babies delivered via the birth canal have slightly mis-shapened heads for the first day or so. It's why a baby's bones of their skull aren't fused yet - so they can move a bit to conform to their exit from the mom's birth canal. Normal and wonderful that it can do so!

Reminded me of the time my dad went into the delivery room when my sister was born and saw her for the first time....just the way he laugh-cried when he saw her ????

Yep. No test needed here, the genes are strong. So cute :). How long do you reckon it took the mum to stop laughing and take the photo.

my nephew has the exact same scar so I can only tell what his was. He had Pyloric stenosis where the opening into the stomach is not right. It can be completely closed or only partly. In the old days, babies simply starved to death if dehydration didn't kick in. These days it's a simple operation. That scar will be virtually gone by the time he's grown up. Again, I can only tell you about my nephew with a similar scar. It might or might not be that.

Oh so precious, the contrast between the two, and the love that bridges the gap.

Nothing like a strong man who is not afraid to show his emotions. This is so moving.

I didn't want to cry. But this is just so touching. All of the pictures say "Don't worry my little child, I will never let anything bad happen to you." This is just so beautiful. And I wish every baby had a daddy like this. Like I have. And this might be the reason why I am crying. Because it is not always the truth in this world...so I wanna thank all dads, adoptive dads, or foster dads who are giving their love to their children, it is irreplaceable! Thank you.
