When my dad was deployed overseas he found out he was able to take a quick trip home for Thanksgiving. He flew 23 hours just to be with us for one day, and then flew 23 hours back. He now lives across the country and if I ever need him, he doesn’t hesitate to drop everything and hop on a plane. - Melissa
My grandfather helped me buy my first car when I was 17 and always changed my oil and helped maintain the car for me. I liked spending that time with him and to a 17-year-old with her first car, it meant a lot to me! - Stephanie
My husband, Drew, has been drawing some cartoons of my daughter Franny occasionally - and posts them on the Instagram page he created for her called frannypancakes. She loves seeing the drawings of herself and it's really sweet for me to remember some of our funny moments with her. - Emily

A wonderful dad (my Dad) in my life, calls me every other day, i so love that. He always makes me feel good and encourages me in everyday life and tells me when im wrong or right. I just love that im so close to my dad. hes the best.
My husband is just so encouraging of our daughters. Even though he doesn't get to spend as much time with them as I do, they always KNOW that Daddy will be there when they need him.
My dad taught me to never give up! He had M.S. for years and couldnt walk at the age of 45. Even though he couldnt do many things he had done before then (farming & working at GM) He never gave up, and instilled that in me and my 2 brothers.
My dad introduced me to books, therefore, spurned my love for reading!!
He sponsored professional education for all his kids.
My dad taught me how to set goals, work hard to achieve my goals, to review when things didn't work to see what I could do differently. He has always been a shoulder to cry, a pep talk to cheer me up. He knew I loved horses so he would take me places where we can ride together. He once took me to a place that boarded James Brolin's stud pinto stallion so I could see him and ride horses there. He worked three jobs when I was growing up just to make ends meet for our family and even when times were tough, he always managed to take us on a yearly vacation even if it was just camping so we could have quality time together.

My husband is the most amazing father I have ever met. He always supports our kids, spends quality time with them and shows all 3 of them so much love!
Oh my I am having brain fog today. It won't let me delete my comment. @Kimber1107 is my twitter. Kimber78 is correct with my @SheSpeaks
I made a comment under @Kimber1107 but typed in @Kimber78 for some reason that was incorrect.
My dad taught me how to never give up, to set goals, work hard to achieve them and to periodically review to see how could I have went about things differently. He was always there to give me a shoulder to cry on, a pep talk to cheer me on. He taught me how to ride a bike, drive a car. He knew I loved horses so he would take me to places were we could ride together. Once he even took me to a place where James Brolin boarded his prize stud Pinto Stallion. I was able to ride other hoses they had there. He is so funny and always makes me laugh. I watched my dad overcome so many struggles. He worked three jobs just to make ends meet for my family until I was a teen then he secured a higher paying job. He made sure even when we were struggling, to always have a family vacation even if it was just camping. When my husband & I were building our home, he was right there helping us with construction projects. My dad has always been there for me.
My dad is the most supportive man. He was always my number one fan when I played sports thoughtout my childhood and high school. He was the same with my younger sister, and now he is taking his role serious and shows up to cheer at his grandkids events. He got to know my teammates names, too. So he'd not only cheer on me and my team, but he'd call my teammates by name.
He taught me to think for myself and to believe that I could do anything I set my mind to!
He is been by my side helping me and supporting & encouraging me even more when I was diagnosed with MS
My sister's father in law has always included and treated my husband and I like we ware part of his family, even though we technically are not.
