Dear dad your little girl is all grown up now just typing that makes a few years come out of my eyes, because I know how much you wanted me to stop growing. I just wanted to let you know I'm so thankful for you and I understand you so much more now. Your little girl is now an airman and I now know why you most of the time said no we couldn't have money unless we needed it, because I now understand that the bills have to get paid.
I understand how hard it is to have everything financially fall on your shoulders. I understand why you weren't at every birthday and just mom was but I know that you were behind the scenes playing a big roll in them and that you wish you were there. I know because this year will be the first year that I work on coltons birthday and the third year that I work on thanksgiving. I know how hard you worked and how it was all for us to provide for us.
I know when I got pregnant how badly you thought you had failed me but you never failed me not once you taught me all you could, and did all you could. You taught me that life is not fair but you get to choose to fix it or not you taught me that you can figure it out and that things have to get done.
You taught me to be the strong person I am today and so did my mother. You always said daddy's always right and that has never once proven wrong. I thank you for letting me go even when it was hard to let me be my own person I thank you for letting me learn my own lessons as you had to stand back and not fix my mistakes , for they made me who I am today . I thankyou for giving me away at my wedding even when I turned around at rehearsal because I was scared and you talked to me even though you didn't want to give me away but you did it because that's what I wanted. You are truly the most important man in my life and I am so great fly to have a dad as amazing as you are .
I know I'm stubborn but I'm so glad you stand by my side anyways and I know you are always there for me. I understand you so much more now and your airman misses you so much . So thankyou daddy and I love you
