Daddy's Birthday

I'm really grateful for my dad. He's the one who's been standing up for me lately and life would be such a headache at times, if he weren't there to be the hero. There are so many things that I wish I could repay him for, but I know that I will never catch up.

He was the one when Kevin wanted to use the art museum for our reception, convinced my mom that it would be okay. He reaffirmed me that it would all work out. He was the one who laughed with me when we realized we forgot the cake topper and also the one to pay for almost everything.

Daddy was the first one to visit the run-down apartment in Salt Lake and to then come back and say let's redo the whole thing. It was going to be another project for us, just like we do every year and that it was no big deal.

He was first one to say it's okay to move out and stay with them when Kevin found the mold in the walls. He also didn't want me being sick all the time.

He was then the first one to get really excited when Kevin and I found our new apartment and gave his approval. He was the first to offer moving stuff and also to give up his own stuff so I could be comfortable as possible.

Daddy was the one to be willing to wait for me to get off of work and then drive 3 hours up to Bear Lake and still stop for ice cream in the middle of the drive, just because I wanted some (We didn't get there until after midnight). He was the one to pay to rent an expensive boat because I thought it would be fun (It was a blast!!!).

And the list continues. . .

I only hope that I will be like him! Giving up his own dreams so others can have theirs and being there for his family.

I love my Daddy!!!!!

So when it came to his birthday, Kevin and I couldn't resist buying an oreo ice cream cake! :)
