I'm going to do something a little different. Every Thursday I want to do thankful Thursdays. I want to write every week of something I'm thankful for. There are so many blessing we come across every single day, and I just want to try and highlight atleast one every week.
This week its only right to Thank my dad!
My mom and father divorced when I was really young; when I was in 3rd grade she married a man named Robert, he was the best thing that could have happened to us; he is who I call dad. He gave us the life you could only find in fairy tales. My mom was a single mom when we were growing up so we only had what we needed, but then she found her knight in shiny armor. Without him, I wouldn't know what true love was, without him I wouldn't know how a man is suppose to treat a woman, without him we wouldn't know what happiness truly was. He made us all better version of ourselves; My dad was a blessing in disguise.
My dad took on vacations every year to Disney, allowed us to have the best Christmases anyone could ask for and the best thing if all... security. When I was 10 they blessed us with a little sister, now there was 4 of us kids and I wasn't the only girl anymore. That topped it all off for us, life couldn't be better.
Without having a positive male role model in my life I don't think I would have found someone even as remotely as amazing as my husband. My dad set a high standard for me and taught me by example to not settle and to be treated with nothing less than the best.
For all that and more. I am thankful for my dad
Another thing I am thankful for is my father. This last time Zack got deployed I got to live with my father in New Jersey, I had a great time. I lived there for 6 months and really got to know him; It was awesome to finally get to know him as an adult. We had a lot of good conversations and we really got to bond. I am thankful that I got to start building a relationship with my father and to connect the way we did.
Some people don't have a male role model in their lives and I thank God that I have two that love me very, very much! I am truly blessed!
Comment below of you have something this week to be thankful for!
Love you all,
This is so beautiful. You are a blessing to us, Cheyenne.
