Happy Birthday Dad!

Today, ok it's 1:20am, YESTERDAY, was my dad's birthday!  He's now 63.  I can't believe that!  When I was younger, 63 meant you were old!  And if you know my dad, he's not old by any means!  He's got more energy than I do!  And I'm a busy mom of 3!
I'm so lucky to have my dad for a dad.  I have had a wonderful childhood, and just to have my dad around has been such a tremendous thing!  When I got married, I danced w/ him to Wind Beneath My Wings by Bette Midler, because I feel like he's the wind that keeps my wings up.  He's always giving advice, always lending a helping hand, always around when you need him.  He's just awesome!  And anyone who has been in contact with him will tell you how awesome he is!  When he talks to you, he gives you his full attention and makes you feel like you're the most important person in the world!  It's no wonder my kids LOVE their PaPa!  Especially my youngest daughter!  He is her hero!  He's mine as well!
And not to discount my mother!  She is just as awesome as my dad, and together, they are just fabulous parents and I am so lucky to have them in my life.  Really.  I'm not sucking up or bragging.  I'm just so thankful for my parents!

Happy Birthday Dad!  I love you always!
