Dear God,\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thanks for giving me a daddy. You knew just what I\u2019d need! In case you need to make\u00a0daddies for other kids, I thought you might like to know what I like best about the one you sent\u00a0me:<\/p>\n

A good dad …<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. knows everything (like how to tie shoes and drive a car)<\/li>\n
  2. is really smart (he even knows where the wind goes after it blows through the trees)<\/li>\n
  3. has a forgiving heart (for when I mess up)<\/li>\n
  4. is loaded with patience, patience, patience (he probably won\u2019t need it, but just in case…)<\/li>\n
  5. has a comfy lap and a big laugh (you understand about that, don\u2019t you?)<\/li>\n
  6. tells me all about you and your son.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Your friend,<\/p>\n

    A Kid<\/p>\n

    P.S. I almost left out the best part! A good dad has real strong arms (to catch me when I fall. He\u00a0says you\u2019re just like that, too.)<\/p>\n
