Since the day I was born, I have always been a daddy’s girl. The bond we have together is very unique and special to my heart. The memories and laughs we have are unforgettable. Between all the Ranger and Yankee games, our daily trips to Starbucks, shoveling in the winter together, the Gingerman game in the pool (lol) and many more. Each new memory means more to me than you know. 

I want to begin by explaining how much I admire you. You are the most hardworking man I know. You still travel to the city to this day to provide for our family. You have the kindest heart, and I appreciate how much you do for our family. You are the definition of what a dad and a husband is supposed to be. You taught me how a man is supposed to treat me, and to never settle for less. 

You taught me an endless amount of lessons in the past 20 years, and I know you will continue to teach me things every day. You are the man everyone goes to for directions, because you can tell anyone how to get anywhere in the world. You are also the funniest man I know. You always make everyone laugh until they are crying. 

I know we have our disagreements, but I know you just want what is best for me. I know I do not say this enough, but I love you. You are my hero, my best friend, and the best father a little girl could ask for. You will drop anything to help us; You care about our family more than you care about yourself. You were always there for me; Whether it be any school event, dance competitions, or when I am upset, you are there. 

You are always the one to make me laugh and smile, so I hope this did the same for you. If anyone deserves to have the best birthday, it’s you. I love you so much dad. Happy birthday.
