Dad,

First of all, you're one of the most hard-working people I know. Not only do you have one job, but you fill the role of both a husband and a father as well. Those are full-time jobs to begin with, let alone your money-making job. You consume your days with working so we can have the life that we do. Thank you for your sacrifice.

Dad, you're a giver and you struggle saying no when it comes to helping others out. Sometimes, that overwhelms your plate, but you make the world better by doing that. You spread kindness and love through your efforts.

You give it your all at your job. I know that for a fact. And sometimes, you come home drained and completely exhausted. That also means you miss out on some of our events and you're not around a whole lot, but you try your absolute best. I appreciate your dedication to us, despite what you lose. You make the biggest sacrifice of all, time, by working to provide for our family.

Dad, you set an example for us and a standard for work ethic. I watch you and hope that the man I marry will work as hard as you do to give our children the life you gave us.

Thank you for everything. You're a great man, father, and worker. You do it all. I love you.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
