Now that I am older, I have realized that my dad had a huge part on helping to raise me. Although at times, I may have not agreed with many of the rules, I wouldn't be the same person I am today without them. I want to thank my dad for everything he has done not only for me but for every person and child that came into my his life. So, I thank you for being one of the most amazing people I know.

1. He's my first true love.

He's been there for me since day one and has given me attention, love and support.

2. He's is my savior.

Whenever I have a problem, that I cannot fix he helps me figure it no matter how little or big obstacle could be. He even saves me from college every now and again for a weekend.

3. He will always be my protector.

He wants nothing but the best for me because from day one my dad knew I deserve nothing but the best.

4. He understands.

He understands that I am becoming older and the older I get, the more responsibility I have. He understands that I am a young adult that goes to school and works but I try my very best to see him.

5. He tries.

My dad does his very best to give me and my siblings everything we want and need.

6. My Best Friend.

My dad will always be my best friend, he is someone I can watch movies with all day, joke around and even butt-heads from time to time.

7. Being a great dad.

It is not only me my dad does do all these things for but, for my siblings also. They may not see eye to eye with my dad or even agree with me, but they are still young and one day they will see my dad for all that he has done will do for us.

8. For putting us first.

I see a lot of parents put other people before their kids and I want to thank my dad for always making us kids your first priority in whatever you did.

9. Being such a goof ball.

My dad makes it his mission to put a smile on his kids' face because seeing us distraught hurts him, so he'll do the weirdest things to make us laugh. My dad has awesome jokes that he's been saying my whole life and now I say them as well.

10. A father figure.

My dad has given kids who don't have father figures in their life, a father figure. He gives them someone to look up to and someone who treats them as their own.

P.S Happy 39th Birthday old man, I love you!
