Happy Birthday Daddy

My Dad is seriously one of the greatest men I know. I'm sure every girl feels this way about her father, and if you don't, I am very sad for you. I know there are A LOT of dad's out there who aren't the men they should be. This world is getting to be a scary place and my recent trials in life have had me questioning a lot about what I believe and what is right. My dad has ALWAYS been an awesome example of what is right. He is amazing. The only member of the LDS Church in his family, he takes a lot of flack for his beliefs but never stops loving anyone and never questions what is right. He has quiet strength and amazing patience. He is the world's best grandpa and my kids absolutely adore him, and I love him even more for how good he is to my kids. He is always playing with them and making them laugh and I am so glad they get to make so many fun memories with him.

He always has us singing a song and having a good time. He has so much talent and has never been professionally taught in anything. He is so unselfish and loving.
I have so many fond memories and favorite things about my dad. He is really good at making each one of his 7 kids feel special. He has nick names for us all and we each have our own ride at Lagoon that is designated just for us to be his "buddy" on.

He has taught me so many things and I have learned to love so many new things because of him. Never in my life did I think I would be a golfer, but now it is one of my favorite things to do, thanks to my dad. (I got my own clubs and everything!)
He is such a great example of how a husband should be. He always treats my mom with such kindness, respect, and love no matter what. He is just AWESOME!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!!!
Thank you for all you do for me, my kids, and our family.
You deserve the best birthday ever and I hope there are many more birthdays to come.
I LOVE YOU DAD!
