(yes this picture I photoshopped and it’s terrible I know. I realized I hardly have any pictures of just me and dad! Note to self. π
If I were to write 10 reasons why I am so grateful for my daddy it would be because he is:
1. Hard working.
2. A spiritual giant.
3. Honest and full of integrity.
4. Charitable.
5. Sweet.
6. Always respected and trusted our free agency and supported it.
7. Unconditional love for me. No matter what I did.
8. Didn’t spoil me but instead taught me to work for what I wanted.
9. Had family prayer and scriptures daily and conducted Family Home Evening every week.
10. He has taught me to have unmoving and unshakable faith in Jesus Christ through just the person that he is.
I love you dad. So much. They say the greatest thing a man can ever do is within the walls of his own home. You have achieved that and so much more. I will love you forever and ever.
Here are 10 reasons why I love Jay’s dad.
1. Intelligent. He is pretty much a genius. When he got married and was looking for a home, he decided to build his own home so he bought a book and built it by himself. Seriously, who does that? π
2. Such a fun grandfather. My daughters ADORE him and want him more than they want me when he’s with us.
3. He’s very good looking. Even my mom when they met for the first time said out loud, “Wow, you’re so good looking!” and then surprised at her own response started giggling out of embarrassment haha. I hope Jay ages well like him.
4. Raised a man I love and admire. That says a lot.
5. Hard working.
6. Generous and so sweet. He always spoils us.
7. He always takes the family out to go do fun things. He’s not the typical grandfather who just sits with their grandchild and rocks on the rocking chair. Instead, he takes the kids out on a scooter ride.
8. He loves me like his own daughter.
9. Genuine. You can see it in his kind face.
10. I love his jokes and his sense of humor. Even though I’m the only one laughing at his jokes sometimes. haha.
Thank you dad for having me be a part of your family! I love you!
I guess I gotta write 10 reasons why I’m grateful for Jay now so he doesn’t feel left out. Oh shesh, I’m just joking Jay! It is my honor to write reasons why I’m so grateful for him every year on Father’s Day. Here are 10 characteristics Jay has that I admire so much.
1. Incredible patience.
2. Handyman. He can build and fix anything and it’s become so handy. He just tiled my mom’s bathroom last week!
3. Hard working. I’m so grateful for his parents who have taught him great work ethic. That is truly priceless.
4. Clean and orderly.
5. Loyal. He’ll always have my back.
6. Very smart and wise. He always points out little things I tend to overlook.
7. Street smart as well. Helps me with my super-naiveness.
8. Excellent listener.
9. So romantic and thoughtful.
10. Supported all my ambitions such as starting an online clothing store, and running for Oprah.
I love you Jay. You fill my heart with happiness completely.
Happy Father’s Day to the 3 greatest dads I know and to every great father out there!
