78 Best Father and Son Quotes to Explain Your Unique Bond
Create the perfect caption (especially on Father's Day) with one of these short, sweet and funny sayings.
The bond between a father and son is like no other. After all, you probably share a lot of common interests (watching sports, collecting cars or even coming up with corny dad jokes). But we all know that the true spark in your relationship is entered around the little things, like the numerous DIY Father’s Day gifts you made that he’s kept over the years, or when he taught you how to shave for the first time.
And just how those sentimental moments affirm the love he has for you, you can do the same by sharing some all too relatable father and son quotes with him this Father’s Day or any day of the year for that matter. Even if your relationship is a bit more complicated, or you have an amazing step-dad who has been the central father figure for most of your life, these short phrases, funny words and touching messages honor every kind of relationship. You may even find some that will inspire you to fill a Father’s Day card with your own words or pen the perfect caption to go with your Instagram recap of the day.
Now all that's left to do is share a mother-son quote with your mom when it's time, or tell your sister about these sweet father-daughter sayings.
