Happy Birthday Dad!

Happy Birthday to the Greatest Dad!!  
My Dad is THE hardest worker I know, hands down!
One time I asked him why he works as hard as he does, and he replied that
it was so he could give everything to his family.  Such a sweet guy!
My Dad is always calling me to see how Zack and I are doing
and always pumps us up full of good things making us think
we are the best/smartest in the world.

When I was little my Dad used to take me and my sister
on Daddy-Daughter dates to Dairy Queen
and we could pick any blizzard that we want!
Even now that I'm on my own and married, he still
gives me any spare change he has just to give us MORE stuff!
He is also the most humble man that I know!
When asked what he wanted for his birthday (and I FORCED) him
to tell me something rather than his usual reply of "nothing"
He told me he wanted a new scripture marking pencil.
Better believe I got him the nicest one there is!

My Dad would do anything for my Mom or his family!
I hope one day that I can even be half as good of a person as my Dad is!
I love you Dad!  I hope we have many more birthday's to come :)

I totally agree. I was telling BJ the other day how my Uncle Bruce was one of the most hard-working people I knew. And so great with babies too :)
