Any man can be a Father.  It takes some one special to be a Dad. 

- Author Unknown-

My Dad is my inspiration.  He is my mentor.  My Dad has been there and done that and even if I have screwed up big time he helps me through it.  My Dad has seen me at my best and at my worst.  

We have been through so many bumps in the road and have shared happy and sad moments.  You are the rock of the family and are my guiding light.

 I wouldn't change him for anything!  I love you Daddy!

You don't need to biologically linked to a person to be a parent.  A special shout out to Ryan as you have stepped into a role as a Daddy to Ainsley in the last nine months.  You two are inseparable and she loves you very much.  

From the day that she met you and automatically started calling you Papa Ryan to the day when just out of the blue she started to call you Daddy; I couldn't imagine a better role model for my precious little girl.

Thank you very much for being there for her, Ryan! You mean a lot to both of us.
