To the one who teaches me how to love, cry and laugh.To the one who says never lose heart and always finish what you start.To the one whose feelings for me are so strong that the word love can’t describe them. Can you guess who it is? It’s not too hard to tell...
* Jane ( USA )
Daddy, I am writing this to tell you how much you are missed and loved. I will always remember that day – my wedding day. You were standing there with tears in your eyes while I was walking towards my groom. You gave me a hug, and the feeling that you never wanted to let me go. But at last I had to leave you and start my new life... a moment in time that lasted forever. I now have children, Dad, but I will always be your little girl! Happy Father’s Day.
* Bob ( Australia )
You ask me What you think about my dad. Great! Great! I must tell you my dad is the best person in the world. Do you know what I mean? He is a considerate and generous man who is loved not only by his family but also by all his friends. His priority is always his family. His sense of humor distinguishes him from others. In a word, my dad’s terrific! I’m so proud of him and love him so much. Happy Father’s Day, Daddy!
