I love my daddy.

While I should be writing lesson plans, as I have about a million to write, I decided to do a little post dedicated to my dad... Since I have known my dad for 21 years, I decided to do 21 things I love about my dad.

1. He is the best dad in the whole world. Honestly.
2. My dad is always there for me.

3. My dad always encourages me.

4. My dad would do anything for me.

5. My dad loves me.
6. My dad loves Brent.

7. I don't call my dad too often and he doesn't call me too often either, but for some reason, when things just don't go the way I want or when I have had a terrible day, I turn to my dad. I know that he always has something smart to say or something that will make things a little brighter.

8. "If I were a rich man." Dad, you know what I mean about this.

9. Oh the slithery-dee...Is this how you spell it?
10. My dad is a hard worker.

11. And he taught me to be a hard worker, too.

12. My dad has always told me I could do things that I didn't think I could.

13. My dad works hard, and I know I already said that, but he works hard for his family. And I'm his family. I have benefited from his hard work countless times. I have been able to do so much because of his hard work. Dance, school, etc.
14. My dad is an excellent cook. Like, we are talking he could have his own restaurant. I know this might seem like a silly reason for loving my dad, but if you tasted his cooking, you would love him too.

15. My dad loves my mom. I used to think it was gross, and still kinda do when they get all kissy, but I really am grateful he loves her so much.

16. And since he loves my mom, I saw what it was like to be in a successful marriage.
17. My dad is proud of me. He is proud of the things I want to do.

18. My dad knows how to sew. He might not tell you, but one time he sewed up a hacky sack that had a hole in it. When I asked him when he learned to do that, he told me it was from sewing up people. Man, I was impressed.

19. I used to want to be just like him when I grew up. Even though career choices have changed, being just like my dad is still something I strive to be. Just a little less hairy. :)

20. I used to dance on my dad's feet when I was little. And I love him because if I still wanted too, I bet he would let me.21. My dad is super strong. He can lift crazy heavy things. I never used to be afraid to jump off of high things (like the hay stack) because I knew he would be able to catch me.

Basically, I just gave you 21 reasons why my dad is better than your dad. Sorry folks, the truth is out. I love you Pop!
