My Love for my Dad
by Alison Bullock

My Birth father left my mum when I was very young so I never really knew him. I did not have a dad for some time and always wondered what it would be like !

The happiest day of my life was when my mum brought you into my live.

So I dedicate this to a very special person in my life, My dad Leo Neilon which I have called dad proudly for the last 30 three years and will remain to do so all my life.

I often ask myself what I could do really to show my dad how much really Love him and what he has meant to me, in my life.

To tell him everyday that I love him is just not enough.

So Dad this is for you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dad you mean so much to me I really do not know where to start.

You gave me hope and consolation right from the very start and when things get tough you give me strength to carry on to hold my head high and reach for the sky.

You always said I could reach my dreams.

You have encouraged me so much and made me proud just 

to be the person I am today.

You have been my rock on which I stand you are my shelter 

from life's stormy sea's

You have encouraged me nurtured me 

and cared for me in everything I have done.

I have been truly blessed since the day you became my dad.

I gained my dreams I might not have told you!

My dream was to have you as my dad and the grandad of my children.

You make me so proud to have you as my dad 

So thank you dad for the care the Love and the kind of happiness that I could never compare.

Thank you for being my dad

Love Alison
