“Who's my hero? That's a great question... Well, I think my dad is my hero, because he's someone I look up to every day.” ~Tom Brady My dad is a role model because he teaches me how important I should be to my husband when I get married. My dad also teaches me that the bravest aren’t always the loudest. Role models can be anyone in your life but, my dad will always be mine. My dad got off his couch when I went to foster care and he got himself out of his mom’s house and into a house and lifestyle that my brother and I could live in. My dad is an amazing role model. He is also very protective, loving, and merciful. My father is protective, caring, and forgiving. He is protective by rushing to hospital when I had a seizure. Another way he is protective is he will take me to any appointment I have no matter how much work he misses to see if I’m okay. He always gets me into trouble to mold me and make me a better person.

My dad has made me feel like a princess when I’ve been terrible and accidently hurt my siblings because I’m mad and take something down very viciously. A small story to tell about the mercy my dad has shown is when me and my siblings totally bombed watching my siblings and we got hurt. My dad made us all feel better for hurting each other and instead of yelling at us he calmly asked each person’s side of the story so we each could fix the mistake we
