not only can we appreciate the ones from
baywatch,
running in their bright red swimming suits
across the beach,
or the ones at our local pools.
i'm talking about a different kind of lifeguard.
a better one!
last week, i was texted a quote that has stuck with me,
"when you feel like you're drowning in life's situations,
remember, your lifeguard walks on water."
i heard it again today in a talk, and i absolutely love it.
it was a good reminder for me that
i've always got people on my team,
ya know?
even when i feel like i'm drowning.
it reminded me of not only my eternal lifeguard,
but of my dad.
today, being father's day,
i want to talk about my dad.
being the only girl,
i get to be daddy's girl.
forever.
[which is so great]
my dad is the most
amazing,
hard working,
loving,
responsible,
thoughtful,
driven
man i have ever met.
he is respectful, and honorable,
and has shown me through example
the way i should be treated
by my own prince charming someday.
he loves my mom, me and my brothers
unconditionally.
and eventually, i want a husband that
can be to my children what my dad has been to me.
dad, i will always be your little girl,
no matter how old i get,
where i go,
what i do,
or who i marry,
i will be your little girl forever.
thank you for everything dad.
you are a constant in my life.
you are one of my [many] lifeguards.
i love you with all of my heart.
happy father's day everyone!
