Dad, It's Time You Know What I See When I See You
Arizona Birzgalis

Dear Dad,

I think it is time I tell you what I see when I see you.

I see a man who is selfless, who puts everyone else before himself.

I see a man who is pouring out with love and forgiveness.

I see a man with rough hands from working so hard for others.

I see a man with a bad back from baring everyone else's problems and tears and holding them as if they were his own.

I see a father who wants nothing but the best for me.

I think it is time I tell you how much you have impacted me.

You have made me grown into who I am today.

You have made me believe that I can be whatever I want to be.

You have made me understand the world around me.

You have taught me to love like the way you love my mom.

You have taught me to forgive, even when it is hard.

You have made me strong, determined, and driven.

You have taught me how men should treat women.

I think it is time to tell you what I admire about you.

I admire how you have worked so hard to provide for everyone around you.

I admire how you are so kind-hearted.

I admire how you love so deeply for people.

I admire how much you love god.

I admire how you are patient.

I admire how you are so hardworking.

I admire you for everything that you are.

I don't think I've ever told you any of this, or maybe I have and you need to be reminded. You are my super dad. You are my rock and my idol. You are everything I hope and strive to be.

Thank you for being you.

Love,

Your daughter

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. 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.
