Father's Day

Letters from Rylie:

Dear Grandpa Tony,

Thank you for my daddy! I owe a lot to you because of the way you raised him. Thank you for helping him grow into the man that he is today and for teaching him to work hard for his family. Thank you for showing him support throughout his younger years and for being there for him when he needed you. I trust that you instilled great values in my daddy and know that you taught him well because he treats me like a princess...I especially like that!

Dear Grandpa,

Thank you for my mommy! I hope that my daddy and I will have the bond that you and mommy have. I hope that he will chase me around the neighborhood so that I can show him exactly how loud I can scream! I hope that he will teach me how to do a lay-up and that he has the patience you had with mommy. I hope that when I move away from home (yes, mommy...it will eventually happen), my daddy and I will talk on the phone as often as you and mommy. Thank you for coming to see me as often as you do and for making me feel like the best grandbaby ever!

Dear Pa-paw,

I'm so thankful that you and ma-maw met and that you are a part of our family! I see the relationship you have formed with my cousin, Taigen...and I hope that we will have the same kind of relationship (she always seems to get exactly what she wants when she is with you and ma-maw...I can't wait!).

I hope that all three of you had a wonderful Father's day!
