HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!!

Today is the day I celebrate having the BEST FATHER IN THIS WORLD!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY DAD!!!!

This last week I had a particular experience that made me realize/remember how wonderful my father is! I was on the bus setting next to a close friend who wanted some advice about being a father of a girl. He asked me what my father had done in my life to help my grow spiritually. As I thought about this question, I came to realize that I truly have the best father in this world. He has taught me to work hard in all that I do. If I am going to put work into something then I need to put my whole heart into it. He has taught me to love everyone. My dad is the most open and loving man I know. He has taught me to not be judgmental. He has taught me to turn to the Lord when I need him most. And most importantly he has always been there to talk to. I am definitely my "daddy's little girl." 


One of my favorite songs is "My Little Girl" by Tim McGraw. I love this song and how much it reminds me of my dad!

Gotta hold on easy as I let you go.
Gonna tell you how much I love you, though you think you already know.
I remember I thought you looked like an angel wrapped in pink so soft and warm.
You've had me wrapped around your finger since the day you were born.

You're beautiful baby from the outside in.
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again.
Go on, take on this whole world.
But to me you know you'll always be, my little girl.

When you were in trouble that crooked little smile could melt my heart of stone.
Now look at you, I've turned around and you've almost grown.
Sometimes you're asleep I whisper "I Love You!" in the moonlight at your door.
As I walk away, I hear you say, "Daddy Love You More!".

You're beautiful baby from the outside in.
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again.
Go on, take on this whole world.
But to me you know you'll always be, my little girl.

Someday, some boy will come and ask me for your hand.
But I won't say "yes" to him unless I know, he's the half
that makes you whole, he has a poet's soul, and the heart of a man's man.
I know he'll say that he's in love.
But between you and me. He won't be good enough!

You're beautiful baby from the outside in.
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again.
Go on, take on this whole world.
But to me you know you'll always be, my little girl.


Even though I may be half way across the world, I still love you daddy! Happy Father's Day! I love you and I'll see you soon!
