Dad I'm bringing you wishes, and fond memories
like the ones that are often brought to me.
Like when I hear the Eagles CD
I remember you cleaning the fish tanks singing happily.
When I hear scary noises on Halloween
I think of the trouble you went through to make the best slumber party.
When I hear the Best of Bread
I remember the fun we had why'll getting our new glitter ceiling. (HaHa)
When I see a swimming pool
I remember Birthday parties, and how my friends thought you two were cool.
I remember how I kept begging for a ouji board on Christmas Eve
Instead of yelling you bought it, and let me decide what to believe.
When I see a pink hula hoop in the store
I remember how you two helped Grandpa Boggs by buying, and wrapping one for me.
I couldn't figure out what it was, but it made me happy.
(I thought it was a big pizza!! HaHa)
I remember when I was scared, and upset
you made it easier...I barely had to speak to tell you I was pregnant.
And when T.J. came early
you two stayed calm, and did everything in a hurry.
You two made sure you got a brand new bed set,
and when I got home it was perfect.
When it was time to let me go at sixteen
I know it was hard, but you let me have my own family.
And why'll I don't know why me, and him found each other at such a young age
I just look at it as being written on God's golden page.
I though about buying you a Birthday card,
but figured my words are free, and writing isn't hard.
So Happy 49th Birthday Dad!!!
This card better not make you sad.
We love you and Thank You for being there for us,
and I just wanted to return some of your loving touch.
So whenever you want you can read this card,
and give yourself a hug for working hard.
Happy Birthday we love you, and always will.
And don't worry when you’re the big 50 we'll love you still. (HAHA)
