What I posted below is extremely similar to Meiyan. As a matter of fact, it is the same. I think, or maybe not. But hers is about Mothers. while mine's about Fathers. I happened to see this E-Mail Daniel sent me while I was clearing my Inbox. And since my main point of this post's bout my beloved Daddy, I decided to post the E-Mail here (:

Still, HAPPY BELOVED BIRTHDAY DADDY! =D

His birthday falls on the 10th of March which happened to be our Cross-Country. Therefore, I didn't get to spend much time with him, since I had tuition after Cross-Country. And he never complained.

You're voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
