Each day I take for granted what god has given me. Especially the daddy he has placed in my life. The road was bumpy, and the mountains were far too high to climb. But each day he gave you and my mommy strength to put up with me (US...a WHOLE LOT of US).
Each time i saw you, you gave me inspiring words of wisdom, reminding me to never give up, but to always keep trying. And for this I THANK YOU.
Last month you told me that i wasnt a bad person. To just work on my anger. Dont worry daddy, for you i will.

P.S. Ive only been called a Dumb Bunny once, while the others have been called it a plenty. (hahaha... Inside family Joke)

I LOVE you daddy ALWAYS. Now make sure you keep in touch with me by guiding me towards where ever it is that you are.
