My dad owns a tree and lawn business. He is awesome at what he does. Growing up he use to make my sisters and me help him. Mowing lawns, picking weeds, grabbing equipment, etc! We hated it to say the least. He has a picture of us all together after a day of work and we look so miserable! I remember turning 18 and thinking I never have to help him again....I was so happy! But now I find myself loving to do yard work. I just got done mowing our lawn before the rain came. It is so relaxing to me just to push the lawn mower back and forth. I love the smell of the fresh cut grass(the smell always makes me think of my dad). I like looking at the lines I made with the mower. I love that I can do that chore for my husband who works so hard. My dad always made my sisters and me work hard. He always told us we could do anything a boy could do. That we were strong, capable, smart ladies. I love and thank him for that. I love to be a princess but I also love to get dirty and work hard at something. Thanks daddy! I love you!

Mowing Green Grass

Dear Daughter, It's me dad....I Love You too. I to still love the smell of fresh cut grass, and love it even more when im the one cutting it. It is nature and nature is good. In the beginning there was Adam & Eve and there was a Garden. And it is there you will find peace,food,a living,time to think,time to rest, a place to play (especially golf) and possibly a place to sleep. That is what I get from the garden.Everything a man or woman would ever really need. Honey, it all comes from the garden. Even the medicine that makes everyone feel better. Thank God for the Garden!I Love your letter...Love Dad
