Tomorrow is my father’s birthday. What can I say about my dad? He’s amazing, he’s awesome, he’s the best dad
ever. He’s always the one who does what needs to be done quietly then slips
back into his seat. He’d dedicated his
life to serving others. Even when it’s
made his life harder and he had to put aside personal goals.
He’s tough. He worked
on a ranch growing up and is still strong.
Even though he’s in his mid 60s he can lift an 80lb sandbag and throw it
OVER a fence onto the bank of the creek to help prevent erosion during run
off. I’m not sure I could do that.
He’s the hardest worker I’ve ever seen. We really like to work on our family. He’s taught me everything I know about
dedication, organization and work, even though I don’t accomplish near as much
as he does. I hope someday I can be half as amazing as he is.
Happy birthday, Dad. Thanks for your example and your light.
How sweet, Sara! My dad has been gone for 7 years, but he taught me to do the job right and always pay attention to detail so that it's the best it can be. Thanks for making me remember.
