I am one of the lucky and have a wonderful man as a dad.
Here a few reasons why my dad is better than yours. Okay, so that is my opinion. I'm sure your dad is great but this is my blog so as yes, my dad is the best!!
Reason:
A. His name is Pierre Andre Alley.Yes, he was born in France and that makes him pretty freaking cool.
B. He makes us eat soap if we swear. No one is above the law, not even my dear ol' mother. You swear around Pierre, you get your mouth washed out. Legit.
C. He is flippin' funny. He has the corniest sense of humor and says things that always make me laugh.
Quote 1: "I'm an alpha male. In the olden days the alpha male would go out, club a dinosaur, drag him home, and feed his family dinosaur. I am that exactly; alpha male." -Pierre
Quote 2: "When making his sculpture Michelangelo had a choice between David and I. Nudity is not my thing so he chose David." -Pierre
Quote 3: "I was sitting in my Mercury and shaving my face with my Venus razor and my dog Pluto was in the backseat when all the sudden this guy who looked like he was from Mars cut me off in his Saturn. I yelled, 'Uranus!" -Pierre rattled that off one night at dinner; What the heck!?!
D. He cannot lie to save his life. Whenever we catch him a lie and call him out, naturally, he tries to deny it. His face gives it away. He tries to suppress his smile and instead gets the most mischievous grin.
E. He loves my Mom as much as he did when he was 15. My Dad kissed my mom for the first time when he was 15 (she was 14). I love the fact that my parents are still madly in love and are best friends.
F. He hardly ever missed any of my sporting events. He also liked to yell at me and the coaches. Others were mortified for me but I loved it. It let me know that he was there supporting me even if he was yelling at me to "Jump, white girl, jump!"
G. He works hard and then forces himself to play.
Basically, I am incomparably grateful for my dad. I know that he would do anything for me and has made many sacrifices so that my possibilities are endless. He loves my mother and his children more than humanely possible. He is the essence of a man; his hands are strong and calloused, his heart loving and kind, and his family loved, happy and successful. I am the person that I am today because Pierre Alley was the father that he is. I love you Daddy and could not be more grateful that I am blessed enough to be your daughter. Happy Father's Day. I love you.
