Way to go Arthur!!!! He is a great Dad. Harry is so lucky to have him for a father-in-law and surrogate dad.

Yeah, Arthur Weasley is a cool dad, i’m so glad he didn’t die in OOTP. But the ultimate, best father in a book or movie has to be, without a doubt Carlisle Cullen from Twilight. The compassion and kindness he has is just amazing. Anyone who has read Twilight will know what I mean. Anyways, i’m not hear to talk about Twilight, and the movie isn’t out yet so i’ll shut up. Well done Arthur Weasley! hehe, mollywobbles. so cute! Did anyone else have trouble viewing the list? I couldn’t find it when i clicked on the link and looked around the site.
