My whole life I have always been a Daddy's Girl, and for those who know my dad can you blame me? He is seriously the greatest in the whole wide world! Don't believe me? I can prove it.
So this one time. . .
I woke up late for work and was in a mad rush to get all my stuff together and all ready for my day, and I literally mean a MAD rush! I won't even lie when I am in a hurry, stressed out, and still tired I am not someone you want to spend time with - in fact it is usually better to just avoid me all together. This day in particular though I was especially ornery, and to add to my pleasant attitude I discovered not only was I already late but there was 3 inches of snow outside which meant now I would have to scrape off my car - only to make me more late! You can imagine it was not one of my best mornings.
My dad woke up, came into the kitchen where I was eating breakfast and wished me a 'good morning' in my hurry I hardly even acknowledged him at all, then he disappeared to the garage and I continued in my chaos. Once I had finally got completely ready and packed everything I needed to take with me for the day I walked outside to take on the task the snow had presented, where I found the driveway shoveled, my car scraped off and heated, and my dad. I had been so rude in my haste to get ready, I didn't deserve his kindness, yet he gave it to me.
This may seem like a small act to some but to me it meant the world. It was ALL that he could do to lift my burden and ease my stress, which got me thinking. How often our Father in Heaven blesses us when we may not be the most deserving. Regardless of whether we say our prayers each morning he still watches out for us. He still does ALL that he can do to lift our burdens and ease our pains. Don't be in such a hurry that we let the small and simple acts go unnoticed.
Dad I love you! Thank you for always doing so much for me everyday, even when I am ornery and don't deserve it. Please know that those things don't go unnoticed. I am truly thankful for all you do for me, and for the constant example you are of our Savoir. Through this one simple act you helped my testimony grow, and I will be forever grateful that I was blessed with you as a Father. Like I said I have the best dad in the whole wide world and I will always be his little girl.
