No, I do not have two dad's conventionally. I have my biological father and my adoptive father; they both mean the absolute world to me no matter how long I have known either of them.
To my biological father, I don't know you. I don't know your favorite beer or what you did as a child; I don't know your favorite color or what you do for a living; I don't know your eye color or how tall you are. I do know that I am half of you. I inherited half of my qualities from you. I may not know much, but looking at the person I have became (and the person I will become) I am thankful that I am half of you. I don't know if you and my biological mother are together and I don't know why I am in America instead of South Korea. I hope you had the best intentions and that is why I am here. I hope one day I can find you and wish you a proper "Happy Father's Day". For now though, I want you to know that my parents now have always taken exceptional care of me. I am blessed to be a Bauer; to be a part of this family. One day me and you, hopefully me, you, and my mom will meet face-to-face. But for now, this is all I can give you.
To my adoptive father, thank you for everything you have done for me these past 19 years. Thank you for always being my number 1 fan at soccer and lacrosse, thank you for sitting through those god awful music concerts, thank you for driving me around until I finally got a car. Just thank you for everything. I know I am not the easiest child to live with, but I could be a drug addict so i guess you're doing pretty well. Thank you for being the one to adopt me and give me all the opportunities in life that I have taken. Thank you for helping me shape into the person I am today. There aren't enough great words I could say about you, that anyone could say about you. I'm blessed to call you my dad and I thank you for everything you have done for me. I love you!
