I am a Daddy's girl three times over! I have a father, a step-father, and a father-in-law who all love me immeasurably! How did I ever get so lucky to have so many wonderful, strong, and faithful men as examples in my life?
My dad and I have always been able to talk about anything. We get along so well because we both have a love for the stupid, silly, and Disney. We always were able to have a good time, whether we went to the park, the beach, Disneyland, or even just on a walk around the neighborhood. He is the perfect example of someone who would give anything for those they love, and I try to emulate him.
This is my other dad who raised me. Although he is hidden in the back of this picture he was never hidden from my life. Always there to support and guide me, he was the quiet strong example I often think of when going through hard things.
This is the newest dad in my life. Although he didn't raise me through the terrible toes or my teenage years, he has taught me so much in the past three years about true devotion to family, and he has shown me a real love of gardening.
I am so grateful for these fathers who have taught me so much, and will continue to teach me.
It is so cool that you've got THREE dads that all love you dearly. I remember one of the first times I spent time with your dad and I didn't really know you... He spent the entire conversation talking about how lovely and talented you are as if it were common knowledge. The conversation ended with me thinking 'ok... who is this girl REALLY!?' And now I know. And he was right all along.
