Ode to Sometimes Healthy Dad,
I know you hate pictures, but I couldn't do a post about you without them...SORRY DAD!
Who always sends me a thoughtful and uplifting card, whenever I’m really sad.
Although you don’t quite understand my obsessions with wacky food combos and my needs to always get in a good run…
Must run for happiness...you understand right?
You’ve supported me through every crazy adventure and without you, I never would have gotten any of it done…
At marathon #1 in Florida
At Marathon #3 in DC
Believe it or not, I’ve already picked out the song for our father/daughter dance…
Don't worry we'll have that dance one of these days - 10-15 years, PROMISE!
Now, all we need is that groom, the wedding and of course, that classic romance.
My cowboy is out there somewhere dad (this one is married but I'll bet he'll look something like this)
Brother Bear and I have always admired how hard you work, many times all hours of the night…
And we both know that all of that hard work has helped ensure that our dreams and goals are always in sight.
Thanks for everything Rad Dad - Peace.
Your Chicago roots have helped me develop a greater appreciation for deep dish pizza and the classic Chicago hot dog…
We thought of you the whole time we were at the bbq festival!
Even though you prefer this type of food, you still rave about the “unique” recipes on my blog.
You pretend that this "creation" looks better than deep dish Chicago pizza...
Throughout all of my highs and lows, you’ve remained my biggest fan…
You made all of this happen after my first marathon! Thanks for the great hotel room!!
Whenever I have a problem at work, you use your business savvy mind to help me develop an action plan.
Dedicated work ethic, drive to succeed, witty sense of humor, loyalty towards all Chicago sports teams devotion to your wife and putting 100% in all that you do…
Mom's surprise party - organized by you
These are just a few of the traits I hope to inherit from you.
So Happy Father’s Day to the man who ALWAYS saves the last dance for me.

What an adorable post! Dads are awesome!
Love your post – and your parents and you 🙂 I love that I got a shout out in the card! Oh the memories!
Yes I remember that visit very well – you poor thing! You had to come visit me 1 day after the break-up. Boy, were you in for a treat! Thanks for putting up with me. Love ya!
awww that card is so cute. that last picture is adorable!! you look so happy
hehe it was at a wedding. I was happy for two reasons: 1) dancing with my dad 2) had a couple of drinks 🙂
I hope your job is in journalism – because your posts are always so cute. This one especially. Love it!
This comment made my day yesterday! Thank you so much!!! I work in PR but I was a journalism major in college and love to write 🙂
Oh gosh. If I had received that card after a breakup, I’m pretty sure I would have wept for hours. What a wonderful dad!
I did! It was the sweetest card I’ve ever gotten. My dad isn’t really the mushy type so I held onto that card for good 🙂
Hurray for the Hamburgs! What a thoughtful card and much needed at the time. I LOVE this post Jamie!
Thank you for reading Sarah! Means so much to me 🙂
