Acceptance

JUNE IS NATIONAL GAY PRIDE MONTH: Repost if you know or love someone who is gay. A wish that people will SOON understand that being gay is not a disease or a choice! People who are gay are not looking for a CURE but for ACCEPTANCE & EQUAL RIGHTS. Many won't copy and paste this. PROMOTE LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE. STOP THE HATE! ♥



Love to all of my LGBTQIA (I remembered the order without having to look it up...yes!) friends and especially to one of my best friends for being so strong and loving amidst far more difficulty than any person should have to withstand.

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to the best dad I could ever ask for. It's hard to sum up how amazing he is in a list but here goes my best shot.

Thank you for...

-Cooking even when you're tired
-Giving us parties
-Taking us to get our cars fixed
-Telling us not to worry about money while still instilling a strong sense of financial responsibility
-Putting up with my cat even though you are allergic and she is annoying
-Always calling me back
-Being genuinely excited about all of my accomplishments
-Giving me advice when I'm having trouble
-Teaching me about the world
-Having an answer for everything
-Always believing in me
-Coming to all of my shows no matter how far away they are or how boring
-Helping me keep my worries under control
-Always letting me hang out with you
-Taking me along on all of your errands
-Teaching me without nagging
-Waiting up for me even when I get home late
-Understanding my career path
-Never making me feel stupid even when I have those special blond moments
-All of those school projects "we" made together
-The years of morning lectures in the car
-Making me look good because your fashion sense is way better than mine
-Doing my hair for prom and graduation
-Knowing who's important in my life and asking about them
-Teaching me how to tackle the tough situations in life
-Building our beautiful house
-Giving me my car. And just about everything else worthwhile I own
-Sending me to Catalina even though it cost as much as an excellent college education
-Teaching me how to set the table
-Making me play the flute
-Keeping all of the ridiculous gifts we've given you over the years
-Giving us amazing Christmases
-Not yelling at me even though we are always making noise when you are sleeping
-"Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he'll eat for the rest of his life"
-Teaching me not to be a victim. You'd never let me stay down long enough...whenever I fell, I had to get right back up and keep on going
-Teaching me to be responsible for myself
-Fixing everything in the house and in the yard
-Showing me how to be the best person I can

Happy Father's Day daddy, I love you <3
