thankfulness post of the day

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for giving me a dad who :

- loves my mother beyond anything and anyone in this world, including his children, as the best way to love your children is to love their mother

- gave us a stable childhood with all needs met and some luxuries provided.

- is sooooo OC and so adorably a neat and control freak. His compulsions always crack me up.

- takes responsibility seriously and gives 100% hard work behind everything he does ; he taught us about being accountable, "doing first things first", "fast play" aka do things in a fast and efficient manner, and always trying to stay detail-oriented. You can keep talking a big game, but you'll only attain success if you cover your bases and do your homework.

- is a loyal brother and a great friend, who'll make it his mission to help you up whenever you fall

- has such a voracious appetite for knowledge. He's my go-to guy to ask about anything and everything about the world of business and politics.

- gives a whole new meaning to the word "SUPPORT"

I love you, papa. You'll always be the first man I ever loved, ergo the man I will love the longest. I love you so much I feel like I married a version of you. Dennis reminds me so much of you in so many ways, that I feel like God cloned you and put you in the *chubby* body of a Xavierian-Atenean lawyer who's just as OC, control-freaky, responsible, loving, loyal, supportive and FUNNY as you. I can't believe this family is so lucky as you have two versions of you in it :) Love you!
