Things I Thank My Daddy For

For falling in love with my Mamma and, with G-d’s and her help, giving me my life in this world

Pretending to eat my play dough pies and cakes, helping me to learn how to use my imagination

Walking me on his feet when he came home from a long tiring day at work when I was little

Taking me to the mountains many times, introducing me to G-d’s beauty not seen in West Texas

Reading the Bible to me every night before tucking me in

Teaching me to pray

Singing, singing, and more singing

Making me feel better when I cut my foot and had to get stitches

Driving me around to throw newspapers early every morning before he went to work

Believing in me when I don’t believe in myself

Working hard at everything he does, which has taught me good work ethics and determination

Showing me how to save money for dreams

Taking me to an auction when I had never been to one

Teaching me how to be a giving and caring person by his example

Drinking coffee with me after we finished the paper route - I felt grown up

Working on our stamp and coin collection together

Praying for me to become a decent person all those years I didn’t seem to be heading in that direction

Driving me to college and getting me settled in the dorm

Loving me always

Forgiving me for wrecking his car

Buying me a horse and teaching me how to ride her without being scared

And for so many more things...

For being the very best Daddy in the world!


I love you, Daddy!

I am blessed to have you in my life.

I thank G-d that He chose you to be my special Daddy.
