Top 7 Reasons My Dad is My #1

Whether you realize it or not your dad is always looking out for you and is your number one fan since the day you were born. I owe him the world. Thanks for being the best dad!

1) For doing my laundry

You never really asked me if I wanted it done or for me to do it myself, but somehow my clothes are nicely folded every couple of days. Although you accidentally give Mom my clothes and Mom's clothes to me, the effort was pretty nice.

2) For cooking dinner

I don't know how you do it. Even though you married a lady that really can't cook (sorry, Mom) I appreciate coming home from practice every day with dinner warm on the table (even if it is 9 P.M. and still sit down to eat with me.

3) “Have I ever told you how great you are”

Your favorite punch line. You may never say it to me or to mom. But we all know that you need to realize how great you are for putting up with all of us everyday, and how great we are for dealing with you saying that to everyone who has ever walked through our front door.

4) For calling me

You call me when you know I’m home alone asking me if i want to go on an adventure with you to Home Depot. Or if I want any food. You always think of me regardless where you are or what you are doing.

5) You put your family first

When you are with all of us, you think of what we want over what you want. When making decisions you always put us before you (except for when you are trying to buy a truck). You have provided for all three of your children to go through high school and almost all of college and we all owe you the world for that.

6) Always offering hugs

Even though I never ever want one, you always seem to force me into one. I may always push away, but you have to know I will always appreciate your effort. I mean what are you going to do with your favorite child in college next year?

7) For being Mr. Save the Day

For answering my screams while there was a stink bug in my room. Or unclogging my sink when it won’t drain. You are always there to save the day. Everyone loves seeing you; whether it is to fix the leak that ruined a friend's basement or for a nice dinner, you save the day and bring always bring a smile with you.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
