Dear Dad

Dear Dad,

Thank you for the kindness you have shown my little brother today.  Giving him clothes when he needed them, but more than that, thank you for noticing that he needed them and that I could not give him what he needs.  Thank you for letting me take him in when he had no where to go and no one to turn to except me.

Thank you for reminding me why I love you so much.  I need that from you sometimes.  I know that I've held you at arms length for quite some time, and I am so very sorry for that.  I promise to keep this acknowledgement in mind and work on letting you in more.

I'm sorry that I sometimes don't know what to say when I see you.  I'm sorry for the awkward silences and bad moods, and temper tantrums.  I love you so much.

It hurts me sometimes at how I've behaved with you and it hurts even more that I hadn't thought to notice until now.

Thank you for being there, even when I stayed away.  Thank you for always being there.

I love you.

Love,

K.
