About a month ago I was walking through the store when I noticed the "card" aisle. I thought to myself, "Hey, fathers day is coming up next month I should look and get some ideas for cards for my dad. As I was looking I came across the PERFECT card. It was written for my dad. So I bought it then.Today I gave it to my dad, as he read he laughed along with it, knowing how well it defined our father/daughter relationship. As he reached the end I could see the tears that he was holding back. It made me tear up even. My father is the most wonderful man I know. No one comes close. I have meet many amazing people and they are all very dear to me, but no man is closer to my heart then my father. I have learned so much from his care and example. There are times that I do get frustrated with his constant need to know where I am and who I am with. Yet I know that it is because I am his only daughter and he wants to know that I am safe and sound. Someday I hope to meet the one man that is comparable to my father, and when I do I will not let him go. I wish that man luck though because filling my fathers shoes is going to be pretty tough.
On this father's day, it is only fitting that I not only recognize my earthly father, but my Heavenly Father as well. My mortal mind cannot comprehend the love that He has for his children (me included :)! ) I have been so blessed by Him and owe all that I am to Him. His care and guidance that He has shown me through my friends and family is more then I probably deserve. He is there through all of my trials, opportunities, heartaches, and joyful times. He remains constant when everything seems to fall apart and He is responsible for all the things that go my way. I love Him and my earthly father with my whole heart.
Happy Father's day!
