Happy Father's Day

This is my all time favourite picture of Dad and I. This was taken at my cousin Annette's engagement party and I was so excited as I was wearing my new dress and shoes. Dad and I were grooving on the dance floor in this shot. Well, as much as a 5 year old can groove anyway.

The only other part of this night that I can remember is my Dad and my uncles who are all bricklayers singing and dancing to Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall." It was like their theme song! That and every song ever written by Tom Jones that is.

Anyway, Happy Father's day Dad. I miss you and love you loads! If I could write poetry I would write something for you, but instead I found this one which I think sums up how much a girl needs her dad.



A little girl needs her dad
To love her with manly charm,
To soothe her when she’s hurt
And keep her safe from harm.

A girl needs her dad
To show her a man who’s good,
To help her make right choices,
As only a father could.

A woman needs her father
Just to be aware,
He’ll always be there for her
To sustain her and to care.

You’ve been all these things, Dad.
I hope that you can see
How much I treasure you;
You mean everything to me.


Happy Father's Day Dad!
