Happy 25th birthday, baby girl. You're on the other side of the world in Guam, but I want you to know you've never been far from me. Not for one day.
You are my firstborn and my heart. You made me a dad, and I've loved you every single day since.
I am so proud of you. Proud of the woman you've become, proud of the uniform you wear, proud of how hard you work and how you carry yourself. I wear that "Air Force Dad" shirt like a medal, because you earned it.
Wherever life takes you, I'm always here. Whenever you need me, you call. Good days, hard days, any time zone, I'm one call away.
I love you now, I'll love you always, and I will never stop being proud of you.
Yesterday, today, and every day after. No distance changes that.
Of who you are, what you've done, and everything you're going to do.
From Colorado to Guam and anywhere else. Call me any time.







You chose to serve, and you did it with that same smile you've had since you were little. Seeing you in that uniform is one of the proudest feelings of my life.
