Dear Daddy,

Since the day I was born, they said I have been wrapped around your finger, and I can't help but agree. You have been the best father I could ever have asked for or thought possible. You don't even know how much I admire you and look up to you. I can never thank you enough for all you do and have done for me.

I know that being a parent is naturally a hard job, but you have made it seem so effortless. Throughout my grade school years, you drove me back and forth to school, practice for sports, and friends' houses, you helped me with all my homework no matter how hard it may have seemed, and you helped me get through all of my dramas with friends and school without the first complaint. I only hope that one day I can be as good of a parent to my child as you have been to me.

You have given me the greatest gift I could ever ask for, you have always believed in me. I have always admired your courage and strength. It has always seemed to me like you are afraid of nothing. You never seem to be intimidated by anything, and you are always willing to step up to the challenge, regardless of what it may be. You are never afraid to step out of your comfort zone. If it wasn't for you, I would not push myself to try new things or work hard, which you have immensely helped me do both. Thank you for helping me realize that I can do anything I set my mind.

Even though we fight sometimes, you are honestly the best dad I could ask for, and I could not pick a better one. You were the first man I ever loved, and you will always be my hero. You have given me the greatest love I could ever receive from someone, and I hope one day I'll be able to give back to you even a portion of what you've given me. I pray that my future husband will someday be an amazing father just like you have been to me.

All My Love,

Your Daughter
