i love you because...
...when i was little, you would let me {secretly} sleep on the floor next to you when i should have been in my bed and "couldn't sleep" but mama didn't want me kicking her all night. {which i was notorious for}
...you're my cuddle buddy.
...you make me see the best in life. #eternaloptimist
...you create joy in every environment.
...you taught me the best way to shout at annoyingly bad drivers.
...you demand great things from us ask your kids {in the best way}, and expect so little in return.
...you let me cry. {but just enough}
...you care so deeply about others and their needs.
...once when i was understandably very upset, you gave me a day to be sad, and cry, and eat bad food, and shop, with the promise that tomorrow, it would be no more.
...or in other words, you make up for devastation well {dance, 6th birthday, friends, parties}
...you always taught me "proper behavior" but love me if i decide to do something else.
...you listen and motivate with experience, knowledge & wisdom.
...you're a tease. {i.e. using the claw, mr. walker, the bracelet etc. long after i was "grown"}
...we could jam out to frank, michael, ella, louis and bobby all day long.
...you let me take your clothes... hahaha {socks & sweaters & sweat pants}
...you film me when i'm angry, so that i can't be angry anymore.
...you just like being near and dear.
...you call just to say i didn't call. {even if i have}
...you teach through your life by the way you live.
...lets get real, i got all my dance moves from you. {except maybe the "wrists", mama wins that one}
...you always come to the rescue when i'm in a pickle.
...you taught me the best way to live is to drop everything and run when you're needed.
...you teach me to find and know what real happiness is.
...you taught me what a real gentleman is.
...we have the same food fetishes.
...you inspire me to be stubborn/persistent with my dreams {even if i'm not sure what they are yet}
...you still let me call you daddy.
...you pushed me to be strong/brave, but would let it be when i was a whip/scared/bad at something {thank you!}
...you point out the best in me, every time you see me...
...and then you inspire me to see/improve my flaws. {that's the best way i know to put it}
...you give.
...you let me be your baby girl.
and for a million reasons more I love you daddy.
Have the happiest fathers day today!
