Daughters Will Love Like You Do

I've been so busy (well, with sleeping and organizing and creating tutorials for the computer for my grandparents) that I haven't really had time to write on my blog.  
My dad's birthday was 6 days ago now and I'm just now getting around to posting his birthday post :)

Happy birthday Dad!  
You know I'm not really one for expressing how I feel about people but I just wanted to write a post celebrating YOU!  I just wanted you to know that in my 21 years of life, you have set a great example of many things and it was hard to choose just one to write about.  But as I'm growing older, one of these things has really come to the surface for me - your incredible chivalry.  It's something I started to notice in high school (although I'm sure you've had this quality my whole life), how you would always open the door for mom (and Hannah and I) and carry my bag when you would pick me up sick from school, among other things.  The way you treat Mom sets a perfect example of how all men should treat their women.  I always loved how you would mention "I miss mom" with a sigh and far away look when Mom was gone.  I know I may seem annoyed when you do this, but secretly, I'm hoping that whoever I end up with does that with me.  You really have set the bar extremely high for whatever man I marry.

It's not just me who notices your chivalrous heart.  A few weeks ago, I went and picked up Anh from school and when we got home, he jumped out of the car, ran around to my door and opened it up for me.  In doing so, he said "I've never seen my dad do this for my mom.  Your dad does it for your mom all the time."  I loved that he noticed it too.  It speaks volumes.

Thanks for being a good example of how a man worthy of me should treat me.
Besides life, it's probably one of the best things you could have ever given me.  

Love you and I like you :)




PS: Don't ever stop going on all the rollarcoasters with me :)
