Dear Dad,

Thank you for everything you have done for your children. I want to apologize for never saying thank you enough and for never spending enough time with you. I know that I will regret it one day. Thank you for waking up every morning at 4 o’clock in the morning to go to work and not getting home until 9 o’clock at night. Thank you for always looking after me like my own personal superhero. You will forever be the most influential person even if you don’t think so. You are the most amazing person. I look up to you so highly and strive everyday to be like you.

Thank you for always supporting me to try new things, especially my acting dream. You used to drive an hour early in the morning on your only day off just to take me to acting classes. Never once did you tell me that it was an unrealistic career choice. You always cheered me on and even tried to look into colleges for performing arts. Thank you for always reminding your children that we are your biggest achievement. Additionally, that we have brought you the most happiness in the world.

Thank you for always taking us places when we were little. Whether it was day trips, overnight trips, long distance trips you always had a jam-packed day. You never let us down with having the best memories of our childhood. Thank you for making me realize that my childhood wasn’t too bad and that there were a lot of adventurous times.

Thank you for always giving to us even if you didn’t have the money for it. Whenever we needed anything you would save up the money to give it to us. Thank you for striving to be the best father you could ever be because you surpassed anything that I will have in mind. Thank you for making the expectations for my future husband so high that no one will ever be able to come close to how amazing you are as a man. Always remember that your opinion means the most to me that’s why I am so scared to introduce guys to you. I know if you do not think that the guys I bring home are good enough, I would want to hear it.

Thank you for always making me know that I am loved and special. Thank you for believing in me enough to let me spread my wings and fly in college. Always remember that no matter where my path leads me I will always fly home to you. You are my best friend and you are the most important person in my life. I love you, Daddy.

I love you more,

Your little girl
