Being a father is a huge responsibility. It’s difficult, it leaves you sleepless…but at the same time, it’s just amazing. Look at men who have already become fathers. Even their appearance changes, so can you imagine what happens to their souls? We can only try to guess.

With this collection of heart-warming photos, we here at Smalljoys hope to reveal something of the magic of fatherhood for all those who have yet to experience it.
