Dad is Turning 80
Hello friends:I need your help. My Dad is turning 80 at the end of this month. I am in the process of putting together a mini-album for his birthday. The goal is to have pictures from every decade of his life...along with quotes about Dads/Fathers and I want there to be 80 of them and I am running out of ideas. I would love it if you would help me by leaving a message here finishing one of these sentences:
A Daughter needs a Dad because....
A Daughter loves her Dad because....
I have just finished organizing my studio and have created two boxes filled with surprises and scrapping goodies. If you leave me a message here finishing one of those two sentences, I will
put your name in a drawing for one of those two boxes. I am planning on doing the drawing on Monday the 17th, so check back here and I will let you know who the winners of the goodie boxes are.
Thanks so much for your help. Have a great day
Jann

A girl loves her daddy because he IS her first love. No man will ever match that level of unconditional love and admiration.
ReplyDeleteA girl needs her daddy because who else can throw her into the pool a 100 times and not get tired or carry her to her bed when she is too exhausted to walk herself. And who else is big and strong enough to scare the monsters so badly that they wouldn't dare come in to HER house again!
