I am grateful for this opportunity to honor my father on Father's Day. It gives me a chance to reflect upon my life and to remember all the wonderful things my father has added to my life.
My father is a great example to me. He has taught me many valuable lessons that I will never forget. One lesson I learned was to honor the Priesthood and to never settle for a husband who does not hold it. Also, my father has taught me to work hard for the things I want and not to be dependent upon others. This was not always easy for me because I used to feel that he was responsible for putting me through college. But he knew I would appreciate it more if I paid for it myself. My had has also shown me how to be charitable through his example. Whenever someone calls him for help, he always seems to drop what he doing to go help them in an emergency.
My father has spent countless hours of proofreading my English papers for school. He also has rescued me many times when my car has broke down.
His advice is always good. I can go to him with any problem I may have and he always has an answer. He's always been supportive of my decisions especially when I got married. He accepted Mario as his son-in-law. He was not as upset as I thought he would be when I told him I was getting married.
My father has done so much for me. I'm grateful that Heavenly Father has blessed me with a father than has been so good to me.
