Style Icon: Daddy's Girl

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!
I am so lucky to have such a wonderful Dad. He does everything and anything for me. When we were growing up he ran for the local School Board (on top of his regular job) to help make our schools better. He made sure to spend every moment he had with us. And even though he traveled a lot he sent us postcards every time he was out of town and always brought a special treat back. When my parents got divorced he made sure that changed our lives as little as possible. He came over to our house, instead of making us split the weekends. And he also came over every year on Christmas morning so we didn't have to have two Christmases. My Dad taught me many things over the years how to be generous(to a fault), work hard, and to dream big. He also taught me to love Tabasco, be corny as heck, give directions by using gas stations and car dealerships as landmarks and to have a really big shoe collection. His style is pretty cool as well. He won Best Dressed back in High school and I think I might have picked some of his awarding winning style. Love you Dad!
