Thank You Dad


Dad.

Coach.

Teacher.

Mentor.

These are all words that I can call my father.

On the court

Off the court

In the school

At our house

My dad is the person who makes me who I am.

From the age of 2 teaching me how to

Speak, read, sing, smile, love

To now the age of 17 still teaching me how to

Persevere, push my limits, and live life to the fullest.

I owe so much to him.

Not just because of the shelter he places over my head

But also the one around my heart.

Forever my shoulder to cry on

My constant support.

Thank you Dad.
