"My Daddy"
When I was 6 he taught me to shoot a gun
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
When I was 8 he gave me my first and only spanking
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
*****************************
When I was 10 he watched me dance ballet
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
When I was 14 he taught me how to drive
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
*****************************
When I was 16 he gave me his 1979 Mustang
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
When I was 17 and pregnant he showed love not disappointment
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
*****************************
When I got married he gave me away
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
When my first son was born, he was there
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
****************************
When both of my marriages failed, he stood by me
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
When I could finally stand on my own, he smiled and was happy for me
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
****************************
I am 35 years old now
He is still "My Daddy"
He slumps a little now and I am taller than him,
He is still "My Daddy"
*****************************
I love and respect him to this day
'Cause he is "My Daddy"
It is now my turn to take care of him
'Cause he is "My Daddy"
'Cause he was "My Daddy"
When I was 8 he gave me my first and only spanking
'Cause he was "My Daddy"

aww! i love my daddy too. crap, you're making me cry!
my daddy is awesome. i wanted to get him something special, or write him a poem. anything, but nothing came to mind. so i smiled and nodded and ate my ice cream in silence. i didnt complain i was tired, or wanted to go home, or that my feet hurt.
and when i passed out on the couch from exhastion, (see my blog, 'how about a helping of local heros?' post)
he didnt say anything. just woke me up and shooed me to my room.
i love my daddy. even if he is weird.
last year, for fathers day, i got him a five foot tall Led Zepplin poster that he cant hang because it is over 100 dollars to frame it, and our walls are to small.
we have a very tiny house.
you take care of your dad. always love him.
Very nice! You should print it up and give it to your dad!
