My Dad...

I lost my mind. Heath and I went to Wyoming this weekend- pictures to come. I forgot to call my fabulous DAD on Father's Day!! I'm an only child- he only gets one call. I feel awful and am trying to redeem myself by posting something special just for him. I really couldn't be any luckier and I wonder every day why the world works like it does, why my fantastic parents couldn't have any more kids!! Oh well. So I found this poem (I couldn't write my own because it is way too tender of a subject).

I love you Dad:

You may have thought I didn't see,

Or that I hadn't heard,

Life lessons that you taught to me,

But I got every word.

Perhaps you thought I missed it all,

And that we'd grow apart,

But Dad, I picked up everything,

It's written on my heart.

Without you, Dad, I wouldn't be

The woman I am today;

You built a strong foundation

No one can take away.

I've grown up with your values,

And I'm very glad I did;

So here's to you, dear father,

From your forever grateful kid.
