Dear Daddy,

I hope you know that I’m so grateful for everything you’ve done for me. You always work your hardest to make us happy, and I appreciate that every day, even though I know I don’t say it enough. Between little things and big things, you've done so much for me and shaped me into the person I am today. I hope this list can give you just a glimpse of how thankful I am for everything.

Thank you for providing us with a happy, memorable childhood. All the vacations, the day trips, and the general happiness of you and Mom have me striving to be as good of a parent as you someday.

Thank you for always working so hard to make us happy. You've always put our needs first, and we're so lucky to have a dad like you to support our family.

Thank you for always listening to me and hearing me out. Whether I’ve had a bad day and need to complain or I’m sharing really exciting news, you’re always there to listen and give whatever advice you can offer.

Thank you for always supporting me. From being at every half time show to sending me off to college, you tell me how proud you are, and I hope I continue to make you proud.

Thank you for always being there. From pre-school graduation to high school graduation, you’ve seen and supported all of my accomplishments, and you’ll never know how much that means to me.

Thank you for teaching me to never give up. When things don’t work out the way I want them to, you taught me to work harder rather than walk away. I also appreciate you never giving up on me, even when things don’t go as planned.

This list will never amount to everything I want to say, and I'll never really be able to fully express just how grateful I am to have you, but I hope this gave you a good idea. Thanks for everything, Daddy, and I hope this made your day even better.

Happy Father’s Day!

Love Always,

Your Little Girl
