I am the most thankful for my dad because he has been so solid throughout my life. Here are a few of the many reasons I appreciate him.

1. DAD JOKES.

Thank you dad for always telling the best jokes. They are always so cheesy and hilarious and you tell the best jokes ever.

2. He provides for us. 

Thank you for always providing me with anything I need or want. When I first moved away my dad came to visit me and made sure I always had what I needed.

3. He boosts my confidence. 

Thank you dad for always giving me pep talks and boosting my confidence more than anyone else. Thank you for never letting me forget my worth.

4. He is a second dad to my friends. 

My dad has a literal open door policy for my friends and they know they can come over anytime. Thank you dad for being a second dad to all of my friends.

5. He gave me a work ethic. 

My dad never rests. He owns his own business and he is constantly working to better him self and he has taught me to always push. Even when it’s summer he has taught me to always find some thing to do. Thank you dad for teaching me such a valuable lesson.

6. He loves our pets like they are his. 

My dad is all of the animals favorite person. He spoils them rotten and he has taught us how to take care of our future pets. Thank you dad for loving our animals so much.

7. He has taught us tough lessons. 

My dad has always been a pretty chill person with not a lot of rules to follow but when we mess up he lets us know. He corrects our wrong behavior and for that I am so thankful because I have learned so much through these tough lessons. Thank you dad for all of the lessons.

8. He loves us more than his parents loved him. 

My dad didn’t have the easiest growing up and I would’ve never survived growing up like he did. My dad has been the complete opposite of his parents and absolutely spoiled my sister and I and he has always been there for us. Thank you dad for being the best dad ever.

Thank you dad for being so loving and caring. I couldn't thank you enough for bending over backwards to ensure that my sister and I are get everything we need and want. These are just a few of the many reasons why I am so thankful for you.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
