3. Dear God,
Thanks for giving me a
daddy. You knew just what
I’d need! In case you need to
make daddies for other kids,

know what I like best about
the one you sent me:
A good dad …

how to tie shoes and drive
a car)
2. is really smart (he even
knows where the wind
goes after it blows
through the trees)

5. 3. has a forgiving heart (for
when I mess up)
4. is loaded with patience,

7. Your friend,
A Kid
P.S. I almost left out the best

strong arms (to catch me
when I fall. He says you’re
just like that, too.)
