ode to my father

Yesterday was my Father's birthday. He is um...thirty something, at least thats what he told me yesterday:) He is the best dad I have ever known:) He is so good at so many things. He is honest, trustworthy, reliable, loving, smart, musical, funny, sarcastic, caring, and he can cook the best steak I've ever had. He taught me so much growing up. So much about life and how to be successful whether it be in work, play, or in family. He was and is always there for us girls. I truly owe a lot to my father. I've always admired him and wanted to make him proud, even during those stubborn teenage years, and you know what? The older I get, it hasn't changed. I love you dad!

Ditto to everything... Dad is amazing! I just hope I'm half as good as a parent as he was to us. All those pics were really cute, a trip down memory lane. Being a good parent is super hard work, but I'm glad I have Mom and Dad's example to emulate with my own kids. Here's to Dad! :)

I also agree with everything you said Rach. You always think of great things to post on your blog. It made me get excited about visiting everyone this summer. Dad is the best. I've learned so many life lessons from him.
