29 Reasons I Love My Daddy
By Rylee Strong

#1 He can make me laugh like no one else can, not even mommy :)

#2 When I'm sad or frustrated or I get stuck somewhere, Daddy is always there to save the day.

#3 He gives the best hugs.

#4 We always watch cartoons together in the morning on weekends, and sometimes he puts in a really good movie for me, instead of watching something inappropriate for my age ;)

#5 When Mommy goes to work some nights, Daddy is always just a small squeal away if I need him

#6 The way he tucks me in at night like a little burrito

#7 How safe he makes me feel when he holds me

#8 He video tapes everything I do!

#9 How special and beautiful he makes me feel all the time

#10 The way he looks at Mommy

#11 The way he mixes my rice cereal with the vegetables I don't like so I don't have to taste them as much

#12 The silly voices he makes

#13 The way he buckles me in the car seat and makes sure I am very comfortable

#14 He always makes sure I have fun toys to play with

#15 He snuggles me in bed in the morning when I wake up before the sun

#16 He lets me play with his face and pull on his lips and nose and doesn't even mind it

#17 He protects me from anything and everything. With Daddy I always know I'm safe.

#18 He always looks out for my best interests

#19 His laugh is contagious, ask Mommy

#20 He is kind and helpful to others and sets a good example for me

#21 He works SO hard all day long but still comes home and makes time to play with me

#22 Even after a really bad day, Daddy always has a big smile for me

#23 The way he kisses my cheeks and makes me giggle

#24 He doesn't get upset when I drool on his work clothes or spill his orange juice all over the place

#25 He says I can have a grass back yard and a swing someday

#26 People always say we look alike and it makes Daddy so proud

#27 He promises to teach me all kinds of things when I'm a big girl and has big dreams for my future

#28 He puts my needs and Mommy's needs before his own

#29 On any given night, he would rather be home with me and Mommy when he could be having fun with his buddies

I love Daddy because he loves me so much and it shows

Happy 29th Birthday Daddy!
Love, Rylee
