            One of the most inspiring people I know is my dad. He was raised in a Christian home with very strict parents. He inspires me in many things he does. He is a great father and very strong in his faith. I am very thankful for him and everything he does.
                My dad was raised on a farm two miles from my house. Which is my grandparent’s house. He since birth has always been a strong, hard worker. When he gets sick he doesn’t stay home from work. He sucks it up and goes to work. He went to CMCS until his junior year and then transferred to MACCRAY to get a class he needed to graduate. Then he went to college and graduated. In high school he met my mom and married her in 1992. Then a few years later they brought into this world my brothers and me. In 2007, he and my mom adopted their final child, Cayden.
                My dad is a loving and caring man. He would do anything to keep his family safe. My dad is a little “protective” of me. I am his “little girl”, which sometimes is good, but sometimes very annoying. I know he does it just to keep me safe and to keep me from making stupid mistakes.  He always tells me to search for a man that’s like him for my husband. Usually as a joke, but in a way, I would be okay with marrying someone like my dad. He is truly amazing.
            My dad is willing to do anything for us kids. He would jump in front of a bullet for us. He is a great man. He is also very strong in his faith. He teaches us how to be an unshaken family in our faith. One of the big sacrifices he makes for us kids is to get a Christian education. It’s very expensive to come to a Christian school, but he wouldn’t have it any other way.
I love when I get father daughter bonding time. I learn so many things about him and about life in general. He guides me in a way that young women are supposed to go. He teaches and corrects me when I do something wrong.  He is truly an amazing man and father.
