When you give A girl a Dad
Kelsi Mills

My dad has been my best friend my entire life, and I don't know what I would do without him. He is my biggest inspiration, fan, and disciplinarian.

My dad has taught me to always be myself, and that if I live through the Lord, then I can do no wrong. He has lead me to Christ, and helped me through times when I may not have been doing the right thing.

I can always count on my dad to be there when I need him, and have never doubted him.

I tell him literally everything; as soon as something in my life happens, he is the first person I call and talk to, because he is always so happy for me, but has no problem with keeping me humble. Anytime I question him, he will ask me "Have I ever lied to you," and I honestly answer no. He knows exactly what I need to hear, when I need to hear it.

My favorite time to hang out with him, is if we are washing cars, watching Alabama football, or barbecuing on the grill. Well, he does all of those things, and I just support. He never fails to make me laugh, especially when he makes notorious "dad jokes."

My dad and I are twins, so any time I am thinking about something, or am feeling down, he doesn't even have to ask what is wrong, he automatically makes me feel better. One time, he didn't know I was homesick at college, and called me while I was on my way to my dorm from a charity event. All he said was "Be outside of your dorm room in 10 minutes, I'm in Troy and want to take you to dinner." I cried the entire way to my dorm, and cried even harder when he got there. He was there for me when I didn't even call out for him, and that is the biggest reason why I love him.

For the girls who don't have a stable father in their life, I am so sorry. I'm sorry you aren't able to have the best friend anyone can ask for, and I'm sorry that the best part of your life isn't present. Also, just because your father isn't there for you, it doesn't mean that all fathers are terrible, because mine is the absolute best.

Dad, I know you're reading this, and I just want you to know that I love you with my entire heart. You are the reason that I get up in the morning and work my hardest, because I want you to be proud of me. I want you to know that everything you have done for me, and taught me, is paying off, and that I value those things. I love you dad, so much.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
