To the man I love most. . .

The man I love most. . .
- has never let me down
- is the only man I can trust with my whole heart
- lead me to my main man Jesus
- works harder than any man I have ever met
- loves his family more than anything and does everything he can for them
- woke me up every Sunday morning for church with breakfast on the table
- shows me what unconditional loves means everyday
- tells me how it is, even when it is hard to hear it
- never gives up
- kneels every morning on a step stool in the living room to pray (I am not sure if he ever knew I saw him)
- takes risks and always tries to right the wrongs
- is Jesus to so many alcoholics, drug-addicts, family members and even the random strangers
- was the one who knelt beside me in the bathroom when I thought my life could not get any worse and prayed with me  - seriously a moment in my life I will never EVER forget and will always be eternally grateful for. It was a moment I did not think I was going to make it through.

The man I love most - is my knight in shining armor.

My Dad has been such an amazing man in my life.  I feel so bad for young women who have not had a strong head of the household to look up to and idolize like I have.  For me, I have had an extreme example of what a hard worker looks like. Someone who puts their family above everything and works hard day after day - to support them.  He has allowed for such an amazing up-bringing. My mom has been able to be a stay-at-home mom since day one of their marriage. He worked that much harder to make sure was able to do that once they started having us kids.  Having her home to talk everyday after school was the only way I knew.  Thinking back, I never understood how thankful I would be for those moments until now. He allowed her to bring us up in a loving, welcoming and open relationship - we would always talk for hours. (Actually, I was the one who talked for hours and she listened! Haha) Watching his unspoken love for us as he works hard to provide - it has been an eye opener. He has shown me the kind of man I will always desire to marry.  All I can say to my future husband is. . . .good luck.

My daddy will always have my whole heart - some other man will just come in and get part of it :)
My dad has never let me down, never cheated on our family, always is there with Godly advice, has been Jesus' voice to me through his guidance, has always supported me and encourages me every step of the way to God's plan for my life.

Thank you, Dad.
I love you so much & thank God for you everyday,
Sunshine <3
