These are two of my favorite pictures of us. One, because it was one of my favorite days ever! And also, because these were two really special moments for me. Do you remember how teary eyed I was when you walked me down the aisle. As soon as I saw you smile at me, I knew everything was getting real. I wasn't going to be your little girl anymore. And as much as you try to deny it, I know you were tearing up, too. And the second picture - I love it! You look so happy, and a little embarrassed. You picked the worlds shortest song to dance to. But I'll admit, it's one of my favorites because of that moment. When I got married, I had this weird fear that I was going to lose our close relationship - I had no idea it would only get better. The older I get, the more I see you in me. The way I am fully confident that I can tackle any project before me - that's you. The way I get really crabby if I don't get a full 9 hours of sleep a night - that's you. My need for perfection - that's you. The way my stomach hurts if I drink too much coffee - that's you, too! And all of those things make me so thankful that I have you as my dad. You truly made me, me. I love you, Dad! and Happy Father's Day!
Love,
Samantha

That was a tender post, very sweet. And I just have to say, you've got great shoulders! I bust my butt to Jillian Michaels every morning hoping for shoulders like that. :)
HAHA. This comment makes me laugh. Mostly because of this incident...I was about 12 when a friend of my sister's told me I had "The most disgusting shoulders that she'd ever seen". I think she was referring to the boney-ness of them. I think she was having insecurity problems, so I blew it off, but to this day have never forgotten her comment. Kids...they can be so mean. ;)
Anyways, Thanks for the compliment!
