I never thought I'd see the day.

When we realized you'd be taken away.

You held my hand, you stroked my hair.

You were the one that believed.

I am who I am because of you....

because of your beliefs, you ideas, and your commitment to me.

You made me a strong woman.

You gave me strength to believe in myself.

You are a man who is afraid of getting into heaven....

Raising three daughters gives you entrance.

Raising grandchildren gives you a straight pass.

I say how stubborn you are, and a friend's response shows I get it from you.

I say how much you love your family, and a friend's response shows I get it from you.

I was always your little girl....and I always will be. Cancer will not take that from us.

I love you Daddy.
