You know how they say that a girls first love is always her daddy....well i am here to tell you that it is 100% true! I love my dad. He has always been my hero. Sometimes quite literally! He is so much of the reason i am who i am today.
I remember, when we were little kids, waiting for dad to get home so that we could play!!! Even though he had just been working his butt off for hours and going to school...he always made time for us. I also remember family campouts and how fun he always made them!! He is where i got my love of camping, fishing, hiking, anything like that!! He was always so patient and giving and made sure that we were taken care of. I can remember thinking that my dad could do antyhing...and most of the time...that is still pretty accurate!! He is extremely talented and so smart. He is where i learned all of lifes most important lessons...wether by example or by him correcting my mistakes. He has always been my biggest support. No matter what i was doing...he was always there to incourage me, even if he didnt understand why or what i was doing. In all of the worst times in my life...he was my rock....and in all the great times....he has been there to make me laugh. I am so grateful for the time that i have had to get close to him and learn from him. I have always wanted to be so much like him. Hopefully someday i will.
Happy Fathers day Dad. I love you.
