-He is such a cheerful positive person who has taught me the importance of looking on the bright side. In fact looking at the flowers instead of the rain is something he has instilled in me.
-I admire him for starting up his hardware business by himself and now employing a load of people and having wholesalers all over the country.
I still fondly remember those days when I counted screws in his shop.
-He drove me to school for many years in the morning.
-He survived a driving lesson with me. (Only just!)
-He knows everything about cars, photography and woodwork.
-He has bailed me out on more than one occasion; most memorable was having Daddy’s Credit Card when I was stuck in Taiwan without grocery money for the month.
-He held onto me for dear life walking me down the aisle. But I was happy to have him give me away.
-I get to see him every few months when he comes up here for business trips.
Thank you, Daddy, for your cheerful wisdom and support! I appreciate you! Thank you for giving me life and love.
And to my dearest hubby, the father to my dogs, you will make the best human father I could wish for.

Visiting for ICLW! Your dad sounds so much like mine! He owned his own hardware store and I grew up there. He also loves cars and can fix ANYTHING! I also have a german shephard. They are the best dogs 🙂 Wishing you the best of luck and that you get a BFP soon!!
