”We Love You, Dad”
What can you say to someone
who has always been one of the
most essential parts of your world;
someone who took you by the
hand when you were little and
helped show you the way…
What do you say to someone
who stood by you to help you grow,
providing love, strength and
support so you could become the
person you are today?
What can you say to let him know
that he’s the best there is,
and that you hope you’ve
inherited some of his wisdom and
his strengths? What words would
you say if you ever got the
chance? Maybe you’d just say
”We Love You, Dad…”
and hope he understands.
