To My Daddy

I remember sitting on your lap and feeling completely content.
I remember sitting with daisies in my hair waiting for the big day.
I remember the smile on your face when I walked into the room.
I remember all the hugs and kisses to make the owies go away.

Most of all I remember the love. The unconditional love that you have always 
showed me. You always treated me like your natural daughter. Through all the 
love and pain, through all the loss and tears, through all the joys and 
disappointments. You have always been there encouraging me, loving me, and 
accepting me.

You are the Dad I am supposed to have. I thank God everyday for sending you to 
us and making us a family.
