Happy Birthday Dad

Although I look so much like my mom, I also look just like my dad. If there's anyone that I am most similar to on this earth, it is my dad. And that's a good thing :)

Today is my dad's birthday. We share the same trait of being the oldest child in our families. I also get a lot of other characteristics from my dad: my athleticism, my math skills, my competitiveness (not always a good thing), my loyalty, and my love for animals.

My dad has to be the most caring dad in the world! He has always taken the time to spend individual time with each of us kids. He expresses his love to me all the time and I really appreciate that. He is a great example of who I want to be. I lucked out big time!

Happy Birthday Dad! Don't work too hard.

P.S. Sorry these pictures are sweaty ones. He's just enjoying the things he loves most.
