girl is SO blessed to have you in her life. Though you might not be related through DNA, you have something between the two of you that is the strongest thing in the UNIVERSE.....love. I would have given almost anything to have a dad like you.

I've been here since 2005 and read so many posts of yours that literally warmed my heart. The world needs more men like you and I, for one, want you to know how much I admire you. I recently turned 60, (oh Lawd, I'll be 61 in January, lol) & even though I don't know you on a personal basis, I am SO proud of men like you who truly love your children, irregardless of whether you share DNA or a "gotcha day". I just wanted to tell you what I felt when I read your post. You're a wonderful man and human being.
