168+ Father’s Day Messages from Daughter, Son

Fathers are as important as mothers.

They are sometimes termed as the unsung heroes of the family.

While our mothers take care of everything, our fathers also contribute a little to the making of a home.

From fixing our cycles to teaching us to ride one, from teaching us how to change tyres to educating us on the functioning of the EC in our homes, they do all the “technical” work of the house.

It’s time we celebrate the presence of fathers with much enthusiasm and fun.

Keeping the fathers in our minds, we have for you a collection of Father’s Day messages that you can send to your dads.
