Thanks, dad..for being such an amazing man, husband, father. Here's just a couple of reason why I love ya!
- You work harder than anyone I know
- You are the most honest person I know
- You have very kind eyes
- You always do what's right, it doesn't even seem to occur to you to cut corners..or ever "try to get away with something"
- You love the Lord, and seek to do His will.
- You always put others before yourself
- You get down on the floor and play with my kids..even with really, really bad knees!
- You give sacrificially
- You know how to fix almost anything...or can figure out how to!
- You are extremely patient
- You never yell or curse....(do you even know any 'bad' words?)
- You love peanut butter..and sweets!

- You always do your best
- You find ways to help other people
- You never have to be asked to lend a hand

Aw, Kristen, I loved this post, your dad sounds like a great guy. What a sweet heart. How wonderful for you to take a moment to let him know all the things that he is to you.
BTW, I just HAVE to know where you got the daddy song.... we have sung that at church all my life, and I want to know it that is a song that is all over, or if you found it through some LDS contact. :-)
Christie..it was on music playlist..and yes, it IS LDS! :) I knew my LDS peeps would appreciate that! (I had just typed in "dad" and went through a bunch of songs and that one seemed most appropriate!
