Dear Dad


Dear Dad-

How could you not be there for me when I was growing up? A dad is supposed to protect his child from hanging around the wrong type of people. My dad wasn't there for me growing up, so my mom had to take over. She is my rock, and my queen.

Dear Dad-

I don't know too much about you, and you wasn't there for me when I graduated middle, junior, or high school. But, you are my father, and i will always love you. Your only grandson looks exactly like you. But, now I gotta teach my son how to be a man? So you mean to tell me that I am all alone in the world. Because you didn't want to be a good dad to me. My mom will always love you because you were her first husband.

Dear Dad-

I know I am not perfect, and I have my flaws. But, at least I am a good mother to Jayden, and we always keep the lord with us everywhere we go. I have told my son about you, and he actually listens to his mother. He really needs a father, and a great role model in his life. So, a real men can lead him to the right path with his life. Not all father's are bad. I salute the real father's who will alway's be there for their kid's.
