Dear Daddy,

From the day you first held me you have done nothing but support me in my dreams and goals. You have made sacrifices in order to help me succeed and put my needs above your wants. I have never stopped to just say thank you. You work every day of every week to provide this family with everything that you can and while I say thank you in the moment, I have never thanked you for everything.

Thank you for working so hard. You are an incredible role model and person that I can look up to. You work 365 days a year. Even when you take days off you still work to make things the best they can be.

I know that I am not always the nicest, I give you eye rolls, and occasionally talk back. I am sorry. I’m sorry for all the times that I have said something rude to you out of anger when you were doing what was best for me. I am working on that and I promise to continue working on the way I respond to you.

I am blessed. God picked you to be my father, and He could not have picked a better man for the job. You have set my standards incredibly high. No matter the age I am I will always be your little girl. From days out shooting hoops, to watching movies, to dancing on your toes I just love being with you.

As I continue to grow older it’s hard to think that this could be my last summer home. When I raise a family of my own one-day I pray that my husband is the father to our children that you were to me.

Happy Father’s Day Daddy!

Love, your Little Girl <3
