my dad

6.19.2011





He didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.  ~Clarence Budington Kelland


A truly rich man is one whose children run into his arms when his hands are empty.  ~Author Unknown


A father is always making his baby into a little woman.  And when she is a woman he turns her back again.  ~Enid Bagnold

These three quotes resonate so deeply for me. My father truly is the greatest man I know. I couldnt have gotten to this day with out him. As far back as I can remember my mother had told me that I have my father wrapped around my finger. I think she may be right. And I wouldnt have it any other way.


I love you daddy. Happy day.

“But it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I’m seeing it all at once and it’s too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst. And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can’t feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life.” — American Beauty
