Happy Birthday Grandpa Bailey!

Dad, for a while now I have been meaning to let you know how much you mean to me, and it's about time I did it. I want to thank you, for the constant sacrifices you made for us. For the night shifts, for the long hours, for putting up with 5 hyper children all under the age of 9 at a time of financial uncertainty. I am sure there are many things that you and mom went through that I was oblivious to, but know that we care. Know that I think about that. Know that we love you.

If it weren't for your willingness to take us to church I would not be a fraction of the human being I am today. Know that your testimony has altered my life, know that your advice and guidance is always in my mind, and know that your grandchildren will be better people because of you. You have been such a huge blessing to our family. You will always be my daddy. <3
