Happy Father's Day

Dear Dad,

I know it isn't Father's Day yet, but mom says you don't read the blog on the weekends, so I thought I would surprise you and give you something to read at work on Friday.

I hope you have a great weekend because you are a great dad. Thanks for all that you do including:

Bringing me to daycare in the morning. Thank goodness mom didn't have to do that the first week. She would probably have cried the whole time; thus embarrassing me in front of the other kids. I'm also glad you pick me up in the afternoons. I am very happy to see you then.

Putting my swingset together...and my play kitchen...and my Cozy Coupe....and painting all those stripes in my bedroom. It looks very pretty in there. You did good.

Tucking me in at night. I like when you tell me stories and take the time to make sure I'm not sad about going to bed. I'm sorry I make you come to my room every once in a while after you have already put me to bed. I just like your stories so much that sometimes I wake up and want to hear another one.

Taking me on the merry-go-round at the mall. I think we need another daddy/daughter date night soon. Just think, one day I will get all dressed up and you can bring me to a dance at my school. But that makes mom cry just thinking about it, so I don't mention it to her. Mommy thinks Father/Daughter dances are just the best thing ever.

Taking me on walks around the block. Mom never wants to go past the end of the street when she has Amelia and I by herself.

Thanks for trips to the ice cream shop. Mom just loves it when you get me all settled in with my bib and spoon and she comes around the corner to see me sitting on the bench. Also, thanks for funding the trips to the ice cream shop.

Most of all thanks for being my dad.

Love
Allison.



Dear Dad,

I am so excited that I get to celebrate my first Father's Day with you. You are a very good dad. Thanks for introducing me to this world.

Thanks for:

Doing my hair. I look so cute when you brush it to the side.

Taking me to the doctor or picking me up from daycare when I am sick. You take very good care of me.

Giving me my bedtime bottle. I like cuddling with you at night, especially when mom keeps Allison out of the room. It is nice to spend some quiet time with you.

Taking me out for walks or taking Allison and I out to the mall to get out of the house.

Greeting me in the mornings...I always get a big grin on my face when I first see you. I also love your kisses.

I love you very much.

Love,
Amelia
