Daddy, you the best!

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY to all the wonderful men out there who take care of their chil’ren.  Especially MY daddy!  It takes a special kinda man to take his daughters and face raising them alone…all because he wanted to make sure they were cared for correctly.  Most people I know have the story of “my moms raised me alone and I didn’t know my pops.”  Well, my story was different.  My Dad was the main care giver.  Of course my Grandparents and, after awhile, my step-mom helped, but for the most part, I looked at my Dad a THE parent.  He filled both roles.  He tried to comb me and my sister’s hair (lol), we ate brownies for dinner (yessss!) and he let me be the rough and tumble tomboy I was…playing basketball with me and even showing me how to shoot a rifle (take a mental note on that suckas! ).  When I got older, he had to buy that first bra, have the sex talk with me, he encouraged my academics as well as athletics, and made sure I knew how to conduct myself as a lady without being weak and naive.  I get a lot of my mannerisms and personality AKA swag from my Daddy.  His cool demeanor, his love of music, his intelligence, his perfect smile (lol…thanks for that one!).  We even have identical birth marks and 3 small moles under our eyes!  Yep, I’m a Daddy’s girl and so proud of it!!!

So in case you didn’t know Daddy, and I know that you do, I LOVE YOU MORE THAN I COULD EVER EXPRESS AND YOU ARE MY STANDARD AS FAR AS MEN GO!  *Cue the Beyonce “Daddy” song*

My Dad and all my beautiful neices and nephews
