Best Day Ever

“Oh my god, Your so beautiful” said my dad. “Thanks daddy.” I said. It has been 4 years since I have seen my dad, it was the best day of my life to see him again. I felt like crying, just from hugging him.

“Look you have grown so much mija, I’m so glad I can hold you in my arms once again.” He told me. “ you to dad, you look like your doin good, I couldn’t wait to see you.” I said. “are you ready to meet your little sister, she looks so much like you, I get you too mixed up all the time” He said.

I was kind of nervous to meet Brooklyn, because I was the last kid my dad had and I didn’t want my place to be taken from me.“ yeah I’m ready” Later that day we got to his house and Brooklyn was inside sleeping, my step mom wanted to wake her up, but I told her I can wait till she wakes up herself, just so she’s not so ornery”.

Brooklyn finally woke up, she looked straight at me. My dad wasn’t lying, me and Brooklyn looked exactly alike. She walked over to me like she had known me forever, she gave me a big hug and didn’t let go. It felt so good to meet her.
“Its like looking in the mirror, but when I was little” I told my dad. “ your telling me, when I saw her I was so shocked, I told Tiffany do you know who she looks like? She looks like her older sister” he said. “I guess your gens are strong” Tiffany said. We all laughed. I told me dad why I was hesitating to meet Brooklyn, He just laughed, and told me “baby girl you don’t have to worry about Brooklyn taking your place, you have a special place in my heart, he said you’re my baby girl no matter how old you get.”

What I learned from this experience was that no matter what or who comes into my dads life I’ll always be his little girl.

I'm glad you got to see your dad after such a long time period. I hadn't seen my dad for over 8 years of my life, when he finally got out of prison we kinda had awkward moments towards eachother, so its good to hear that not all people are like me and him, it seems like you love and respect your dad very much! Im not neccessarily a daddys boy, but more of a mammas boy, but its always nice to connect and be close to your parents. You did a good job on describing every little detail that went on when you and him reunited, and put a lot of the things that were said in there too. You did a great job on your blog and hope the best for you and your family.

I really like what you said about even if someone comes into your life you will still will be recognized. i know that feeling that you won't be recognized. because my uncle and his wife had a baby and i thought that i would be left in the dark. but later i found that it didn't happen because either way i grew up with them and they would always be there no matter what happened. but i did like your dialogue and how it was written

Your dad sounds like he really cares. Your lucky you have him and you should cherish every moment you share with him. I i grew up with out a dad, he got killed when I was young. Isn't it funny how when it seams like things cant get any worse someone comes in too your life and changes everything. I really like this paper to be honest im happy for you. I'm glad things worked out good.
