Remembering the little things.

Four years ago in june my dad wrote me a letter that was given to me at laura light camp. last week i lost my covenant ring and in searching for it i came across this letter i thought i had gotten rid of it.
i would like to share this letter with you all its defiantly from my dad. the person that ask him to right this letter the point was to show our strong points and remind us that we are important.
he starts off the letter with

Hello Sarah-

well you are a challenging person, and thats for sure. You always have a strong opinion on most all things!

you are a good worker and have a lot of self drive. It has always been difficult to get you to change your mind. once you have decided on a course of action all I have been able to do is make suggestions! A very strong willed person you are sarah!

you like pink, and color by numbers art work. oh yes! Big fuzzy house shoes are something you like.

Hillary Duff movies are all around the house (your favorite)!

i would say that you are a very nice young lady who enjoys life and can be a lot of fun to be around, but you need friends who will stand up to you and let you know what they need and expect from you!

and some day when you find that right man in your life?... He needs to be a strong and understanding man, who will listen to your needs and allow you the space you need, to be part of his. Thats in the Bible!
when other girls are painting there bedrooms pink and pastel with little red hearts all over, you paint yours orange with yellow flowers and green trim.
Go get them sarah!

your DAd

he put his little smiley face at the end.

it always amazed me that even though my dad had 10 kids he knew how to make each and everyone of us special to him and all of us to have our own time together.

I miss you everyday Dad.
i cant believe its only been a year sometimes its seems like forever sense you have been gone.
love you
