Happy Birthday, Daddy!


You may have thought I didn't see,
Or that I hadn't heard,
Life lessons that you taught to me,
But I got every word.

Perhaps you thought I missed it all,
And that we'd grow apart,
But Dad, I picked up everything,
It's written on my heart.

Without you, Dad, I wouldn't be
The woman I am today;
You built a strong foundation
No one can take away.

I've grown up with your values,
And I'm very glad I did;
So here's to you, dear father,
From your forever grateful kid.

Hello, SB!! :)

*hands over the snot rag*

So...ya' like the poem, huh? haha I doubt my Dad will never even see it...but it is fitting, so I posted it anyway. By the way...it made me snot, too.

:P I just KNEW you'd catch that author's last name. hahaha (And the *reason* I knew...was, of course, because great minds think alike. LOL)

HASG2!!
