TO MY OTHER FATHER with ALL MY LOVE ALWAYS

TO MY OTHER FATHER WITH ALL MY LOVE . I can only put so much wonderful things about this man of whom I have only known for a short time in my life , and of whom I have come call "Pop" at times. He listens when you need him, he is there to share the happy times, and well as the bad .He lends a ear to hear always to just listen to me complain over the years and I am so thankful for that . He has taught me to be the person I now I have become today, loving , kind, and good . Along the way he had a struggle though trying just to get me to listen and now I finally have , and I wanted to take this time now to just finally say thanks Pop for being there for me, thanks so much Father and I hope you don't mind me calling you that cause , that's what you have been and are to me. It takes more than just words can ever express in my heart today or at this moment without there being tears in these eyes cause I love you so much more than I ever thought I could . A dad is someone you can talk to about anything without judgement or anything and of whom I have been without for many years until you came along and showed me a dad is more than just a word on this piece of paper. He is there to share a good word or two or three and believe me there's been times when I just needed a swift kick in the drawers ha ha and he could have done that but instead he spoke to me and got me just to listen and I just want to take the time today once again to say I thank God for you "Olen " my other father of whom i love with all my heart . Thanks for putting up with me for over 30 years !! Thanks for just you being you . Thanks for that boat ride that one year that I still to this day remember as a young girl . You instilled in me honesty and trust in myself again and that I can never repay except to continue ask God to bless you both always and which I will forever be indebted to God for allowing me to know you all these years and what a teacher God is when gave you the challenge of dealing with a stubborn , rebellious, unappreciative , and uncaring child and turned her all around for the better today . I will never forget that now or never !!! I now know what a Dad really can be and or is . Thank you God for my other father . With much love always , your daughter . I LOVE YOU ALWAYS . MAY YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY DAD ON YOUR BIRTHDAY THE 17TH OF THIS MONTH .
