My Dearest Girl,

I miss you so much. It feels like it's been forever since I've seen you, and I can't wait until we're together again. I know you're busy with your own life now, but I just wanted to reach out and tell you how much I love you and how proud I am of the woman you've become.

You've grown up so much since then, and I'm so proud of the person you've become. You're kind, compassionate, and intelligent. You're also incredibly strong and independent. I know you're going to do great things in life.

I miss our talks. We used to talk for hours about everything and nothing. I loved hearing about your day, and I loved giving you advice. I know I'm not always the easiest person to talk to, but I hope you know that I'm always here for you.

I miss our hugs. You have the best hugs in the world. They're so warm and comforting. I could hug you all day long.

I miss your smile. Your smile is so beautiful and contagious. It always makes me happy to see you smile.

I miss your laugh. Your laugh is so infectious. It always makes me laugh too.

I love you so much, Darling. I can't wait until we're together again.

I thought I'd finish with a poem Daddy has written especially for you......

A father's love for his daughter Is like no other love on earth. It's a love that never fails, A love that's always there.

A father will always be there for his daughter, Through thick and thin, No matter what. He'll be her shoulder to cry on, Her best friend, And her biggest fan.

A father will teach his daughter about life, About the good and the bad, About the right and the wrong. He'll be there to guide her, To protect her, And to love her unconditionally.

A father's love is a precious gift, One that a daughter will cherish forever. It's a love that will make her strong, A love that will make her brave, And a love that will make her feel loved.

If you're lucky enough to have a father who loves you, Hold on to him tight. Never take him for granted, And always remember how much he loves you.

For a father's love is a precious thing, One that should never be taken for granted.

Love, D
