You have given me everything,
Even when you did not have it.

You are no less than any other dad
And I’m happy to have you in my life.

For being as great as my biological dad would have been.

Love you, Daddy!

But I miss you so much when you are away.

For making me a graceful woman from a naughty girl.

Thank you, Daddy,

You have worked tirelessly to raise me
And you have given me all the love and care

But your quiet and strong presence
Has influenced me to a great extent.

I love you.

Hey Dad,

I know it might look weird to you that I am writing a letter instead of using WhatsApp or email. Well, I have never expressed my emotions to you, so I would like to let you know how happy I am to be your son.

Firstly, I thank you for giving me such a wonderful life. You nurtured me at every step of the way, giving me an excellent education, excellent advice, and a happy place to grow up into the man that I am today. I always wanted to thank you.

You always made me comfortable when I had to share confidential information, and you played video games with me when my friends did not accompany me. All these memories are etched in my heart, and I will never forget them. You molded me into a good person, and I want to do the same for my future children.

I see you not just as agood father,但也是一个妈妈和一个深情的丈夫responsible brother to aunt. I don’t know if I can repay you enough, but I want you to know that I am always here for you.

Thank you for everything.

Yours,

As a father, you have done everything for me. You have overlooked all my mistakes and saw the best in me that others couldn’t. We have shared a special bond all these years, and I am glad that nobody else could have given me the guidance, inspiration, and support you have given me.

16. A sorry letter from a faraway son

Dear Dad,

I have realized very late how important you were to building my life. I did not thank you enough back then. You are my first superhero, first role model, and first everything.

At times, I fought with you and was rude to you. I am extremely sorry for hurting you with my harsh words. Still, you never gave up on me and helped me in every possible way to send me to a foreign land to pursue my education.

Now, when I am living alone, I know what I am missing the most. It is you, Dad. I miss you every moment of my life and regret not being with you. Thank you for giving me the strength and wisdom to overcome hurdles and for being so patient with me.

I am coming very soon to hold your hands again and to give you a warm hug.

Your loving son,
(name)

17. A letter remembering an incident

Hey Dad,

Do you remember the day we almost had a crash? I cannot forget that incident.

It was a chilly winter night, and we were heading home after you picked me from a party. The roads were blocked, you were going slow, and we were enjoying our favorite rock music. Suddenly, the car started gliding into the trees and the woods.

Within a fraction of seconds, you steered the car, and we escaped the ditch. Your presence of mind impresses me till date. You protected me without worrying about your hand that was twisted badly. That’s when I realized how special you are to me. And now I know how a father should be.

Love you loads,
(name)

18.甜而热情的来信

Hey Pa,

It is my humble plea to you, don’t be embarrassed at me as I’m writing this letter to share my feelings. I know we have a strong bond, and I can tell you anything. But I think these are a few feelings that I cannot express in person.

Even without telling you, you always know when something is wrong.
Even with my smallest achievements, you are proud of me.
Even when you have no money, you do your best to get me gifts.
Even when you are busy, you call me to ask how I am.

How can you be soft and strong at the same time? Nobody can be a better father than you. I love you so much, Pa, andI miss you.Please visit me whenever you can.

Yours
(name).

Hey Daddy,

I am so grateful to have a blessed figure as my father. I admire you, Daddy, for everything. You have been an influential figure in my life. You have helped me set goals, and you guide me to achieve them. I appreciate your determination.

I look up to you, and I want to be like you. You have always taken the path less traveled, and I am totally inspired by that. I hope I also become a person like you—a humble person who can cook, fix anything, and be patient. Your intelligence and knowledge are what I am most proud of.

Your humor makes me laugh, and your protection makes me feel safe. Your love brings our family together. Not just me, but mom too loves you for being the father you are.Thank youfor the shelter, food, education, and love you have given me.

You have always motivated me to do things that I thought I never could. Your family values will be transferred even to my children, and I promise you that. My children are also blessed to have a grandfather like you.

We alllove you so much,
(name and grandchildren’s names).

20. A letter from a traveler son

Dear Dad,

We went on adventures right from when I was little. Some were boring (just kidding!). They were the best adventures of my life. You used to take me in the car, without any plans, and we had so many special episodes. Back then, I did not know our unplanned destinations and trips would inspire me so much to explore different parts of the world.

It is you who guided me to do what I love the most. And now, all those traveling lessons have made me a professional traveler. I have seen so many beautiful countries and want to visit more. The next time I come home, I want you to come along with me. Yes, no plans, just hitting the road, like the old times.

See you soon,
Love you
