Dear Love,
You remember when we first met, yeah? We were first friends, and I remember how you'd always advise me, take me through lessons on Chemistry in preparation for my exams.
And then, you became a mentor, one so true and caring. You taught me to be passionate about growth.
Then, we became best friends. I remember how we would spend time together, laughing, and how you were a shoulder for me to lean on, and how you encouraged me.
Gradually, my heart would dance at your sight and each time I heard your voice, my ears felt like they were listening to a soothing melody.
"Could this be love?" I had asked myself, but I even wanted to deny it.
Dear Love,
I remember after my dad left, how you stood by me, how you made me feel protected, how you showered me with care, how you didn't want to see a tear drop from my eyes. That was when I knew you could stand as a father figure. Sweet, I loved you even more and was willing to do more with you.
Dear Love,
You came into my life and lit up my world. I thought I'd never get to experience a father's love anymore. But, you've proven to be not just a husband but a father to me. Its the way you look out for every details.
Dear Love,
You know, I wasn't scared when we found out we were going to be having a baby. Because, I trusted you'll be a great father to our child, just like you've been to me. And, you didn't disappoint.
I love how you take care of her. I love how you handle everything. I love how you watch over us in prayer. I love how courageous you are for us. I love you for your hardwork.
Dear Love,
Today, I honour your guidance, your unwavering support, your love. You're like the sugar that adds sweetness to the family. I'm grateful for all your sacrifices.
Thank you for being my own hero. I love you, more than words can express.
Happy Fathers' Day, my Love.
