I have been craving pie: Can you tell???

Dear Dad
  Happy Father's Day!
 I have been thinking about it and all the years that you have been my dad. I have sure been blessed to have such great parents.
   I remember so many wonderful things about you today.
One that comes to mind today was our after dinner visits. We were the slowest eaters and because of that, so that no one had to wait for us to finish our meal, we would clean up together.
 Dad, I can't remember all the conversations we would have. I remember feeling like wow! We are getting along and talking and this is such a great feeling. The kitchen cleaning seemed like nothing when we were enjoying each others company.
   You and mom always taught me to be a good persona and to always be true to myself and what I was taught. I know that many people are successful and have a lot of money, but I would rather fail in life and keep my honesty and integrity than to have a lot of money and get that way by back stabbing others and being dishonest.
Thanks for all the camp outs we went on... Looking back those were more work for you and mom and required more clean up and a real vacation in a hotel!
 Thanks for all the family outings.
 I still do not know why, but going to American Fork Canyon seemed a LOT Longer ride in the VW Van than it does now.
 Thanks for all the scenic rides we would go on in Provo Canyon.
 Thanks for all the times you forgave me for not C.T.R.- ing
  Do you remember R.T. Dena? (Rude Talk Dena)
I hated hearing that, but thanks anyway!
 Thanks for all the sleep-ness nights: Wait, mom had those, but you supported her, so Thanks!
 Thanks for Christmases that came from your money you worked hard for although, I am sure you were just as surprised as us when you saw what mom got us! :D hehe
 Thank you for all the walks we have had... I bet they have come to miles and miles now, but they were always nice with you.
 I never will forget the time I ran away from home and you chased me and caught up with me. I started screaming for help that I did not know this man and you had to talk this old couple them believing you that I was your step daughter... Thanks for not killing me right them and there. Mom would have never known :)
Thanks for forgiving me for the time I snuck out of the house... One time was all it took. Summer woke up and when I got home I went to my room. I will never forget your face as you rolled over on my bed and said where were you!? I screamed it scared me. But you forgave me and seriously... I never snuck out again.
Thanks for keeping me on the straight and narrow but not in a harsh way. You were not forceful and you were always god to me. You were a real dad to me, and you still are. You and mom molded me shaped me to who I am today, and I still care what you and mom think.
  I love you a lot dad
 Thanks for marrying mom and staying with her inspite of all the difficulties it is to raise children that are not your blood.
But you did it! You and mom did what many people try to do.
 we have had hard times and sad times and good times and happy times and joyful times and fun times and funny times but they are all our family times together and making us a better family and better people.
 You and mom did what is difficult for families that are not "split" but I never see my family as that. I see our family as a one whole pie.
Maybe a couple slices are blackberry, and a slice is cherry and one might be pumpkin and there are a couple pieces that are blueberry, but we are all in one big pie together and we do what we can to make it work for us. I really do not see my family as different than others. But I my siblings were never less to me than siblings and I think that is what is important for me. I like our homemade crazy fun family pie. I love you and mom and I know we are all better people for enjoying our family pie just the way it is and I would not have my family pie any other way!
I can not wait to see you on the 28th...
 I am coming! Get Ready for the time of your life.
(Mom and I can make a pie!)
