My Daddy is the Best - Lyrics

Father's Day falls on 3rd Sunday of the month of June. It is celebrated to honor Dads for everything they do to bring up kids and bond a family through out their life. As it's been celebrated on June 21st this year, here's a song lyrics "My Daddy is the Best" and I am sure, kids will love to sing this song. This is from the Album of Penny Vaz, an Indian singer from Bombay. You can also find 'Dad-A Role Model and Tips for Dads -(article in my Book 'Guardian of Angels' - a copy can be grabbed from Amazon.com ) - Enjoy!
My Daddy is the Best
I hear from my friends everyday, About the things their daddies do
So rich and famous they may be,I know that what they say is true
Some are doctors some are cops
Some have reached the very top
Some are short and some are tall
Some they say just have it all
But I still like the one I've got'Cause he's the Best one of the Lot

Chorus: My daddy is the best
He's a cut above the rest
I know he cares for me
He's everything a dad should be...
My daddy is the best
He's a cut above the rest
I know he cares for me
He's everything a dad should be
My daddy is the Best.


He gets home tired everyday
But then he takes me on his knee
He strokes my cheek that special way
I know how much he cares for me
Takes me to a movie show
Anywhere I wanna go
Takes me to the beach to play
Yes, my daddy makes my day
There are times when I', feeling sad
But I come alive holding his hand...


Repeat Chorus.

Build the Confidence and block anxiety

Confidence is the key to success. We all know this but often we find our children lacking the confidence. Especially, during examinations. Examination period is also a cause of anxiety. It is observed that many people have the social phobias in their personal and professional lives and many find it a ‘Blocking Door’ as they stumble over a presentation at work or go blank on a test or baffle to speak and find stammering in nervousness in certain situations. This is a disturbed social confidence and a stressful situation.

Do not let a Parental Anxiety create stress for children. In fact, turn the anxiety into Energy. Keep cool. Believe in yourself and your child. A child who is stressed with Parental anxiety often finds loss of memory and loss of confidence.

Smooth Sailing Relationships

Relationships mean a lot in life! Let there be Smooth sailing Relationship with soft hearts but no broken relations if one got to stay happy, make happy, stay cool. How often, we find people with 'Crush' and this can happen with anyone - children to adults! Only as parents or teachers, we ourselves need to be too aware of our emotions and set a positive example to children who often need guidance.

Here are tips that might help adults and guide children too :

Stay cool. Make sure the person you like so dearly is not married because it sooner or later spells disaster. If you do so, keep the friendship a distance and let not your emotions go haywire. After all, many people learn this from experiences only!

If your Crush is too young, treat her right! Don’t scare them out of your wits. Just be cool friends, give positive signals of openness to make her realize that you care. Even if you don’t get encouragement to positive signals, let go. Don’t hurt yourself or the other. Do not tell tales about your Crush as it would only harness yours and her reputation spreading rumors about your relationship.

If your crush is too old, Watch out! Snoop around a bit and get to know how her reputation holds importance. If you think of her as a flirt, the warning signal but if she is a flirt like all libras and Leos do, just remember that she lives a lot in realities and you will sooner or later realize your own mistake! Don’t get smitten with love bite but be cool to let your relationship take on a lighter tone while flirting and think positive that some relationships are inspirations and encouragements too. These things are more important to back you up in pursuing your responsibilities in life.

Staring, sending cards, making phone calls, sending messages and stuff should mean something but let not those emotions run wild. It may happen that your crush is more mature and finds such things ‘Silly’. Just ‘Be yourself’ Do not act in haste, make a show-off, smoke, drink or drive senseless to impress someone. In any case, mature people don’t change themselves to please others. Stop those ‘Blank calls’ and all the crazy ways if you have the Crush. Soon you realize its only a ‘Crush’ but if you think, you like the friendship, go ahead and be practical instead of being crazy because friends are forever. If you think, your emotions are chasing high, stop, think and analyze and then, go and let your Crush know point-blank what she means to you or you are interested. If you feel you are right, you are right and stick tight but if you don’t have those reciprocal relationship treat, just Relax, stay cool – catch the hold of the moment, let the heart beat into the sweet memories forever.

Well, I have covered up a Chapter 'Temperament and Values' in my book 'Guardian of Angels'. We all need to Conquer Anxiety and Master our Moods. Know Emotions and stay cool, impart values to our children as they grow up.

Btw, here's Moms Zone for Parents and teachers on Kidsfreesouls.

How to Tithe?

Christmas time and time to be Spiritual and spread love, faith, peace around. I've been attending the Midnight Mass at the Church since years and what I find so amazing is the holy silence as the sermons are being read. There is a spiritual feel in the air as the baby Jesus is born and everything is so different that makes one believe in a super power 'God'.

Some parents are concerned on How do we teach the child Spiritual Wisdom? And here's guidelines to build the Faith. However, it is also important to teach your child to Give (or call it Tithe, which means giving tenth part of income to church). Like the song we teach our kids, "If you give love, you will receive love - same way, it is important to teach a child to give away their share of things they like to buy like toys, clothes, cassettes. Sometimes, children do not like to share their belongings. However, charity begins at home! So, how do you teach your child to 'Give' (or Tithe)?

Children's Day in India: Nurture a Genius in your child

Albert Einstein thought ‘Nothing short of a miracle that the modern methods of instruction have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry; for this delicate little plant, aside from stimulation, stands mostly in need of freedom; without this it goes to wreck and ruin without fail.' Nurture a Genius in your child. An article in Guardian of Angels speaks of various intellectual skills. These skills develop with the age and the educational feedback as well as the day-to-day core and living in free atmosphere. They possess the following main intelligence skills and its upon a parent to nurture their Genius minds in the category they fall into:

Linguistic skills
Creative skills
Logical skills
Music
Spatial Intelligence
Bodily movements
Empathy skills & Self Understanding
Harmonious Approach with Intra Personal capabilities
Sense of Nature Love


Recognizing the child’s potentialities and their interest reflects their intelligence skills and whilst most systems in school focus on Linguistic and Logical methods of learning, it is the Creative spirit to be nurtured in the kid and a Genius is Born.
