Just a month and some change after Mother's Day, Father's Day has come!
The relationship between a child and a father is already one that is very special, but I would argue that the relationship between a daughter and father is even more so. This Father's day, I want to talk about how special my bond with my father is!
First and foremost, I must admit how lucky I am to have a father as amazing as mine. My father's attentiveness to every small detail when it comes to my sister and I honestly amazes me till this day. He pays such close attention to all of our likes and dislikes, even the ones that seem insignificant.
His thoughtfulness is something else that makes me even more grateful for being his daughter. One of the sweetest things that my dad had ever done for me was on my 15th birthday. For this birthday my dad was the one who chose the restaurant for my birthday dinner. He had selected a hibachi restaurant, which I didn't give much thought as to why he specifically chose that restaurant. After we were done eating, my friend asked my dad why he wanted this restaurant. His response was since Lasya likes cooking, I thought she would enjoy seeing them preparing the food in front of us. I know, it was the cutest thing ever. This is just one example of how sweet and thoughtful my dad can be.
My dad is also one of the funniest people that I know of. Even though he might not seem like a guy who is always cracking jokes, my dad is genuinely a jokester at heart. There isn't a moment between both of us where we aren't joking around with each other.
Though my Dad might seem critical of some of my steps towards my career, I know that his criticism is rooted in his concern for my future and his desire for me to live a peaceful, stress-free life. While I don't want to admit it, without his tough love and guidance, I would probably be clueless career-wise.
I am so lucky to be blessed with such a funny, energetic, thoughtful, attentive, and just, all in all, such an amazing father! Every moment that I spend with my dad is filled with happiness and joy, and sometimes lots of stress. I am so thankful for being blessed with such an awesome Dad who makes every moment of life memorable.
