Dear Olivia,
Life is about hard times. And its about having joy, true joy. It took me along time to learn this lesson that life is suppose to be hard. I thought life should be easy and fun all the time. I bet most of us people think life should be easy and fun all the time. But it's not. Its about learning and growing up. It's about failures and successes. It's about happiness and sadness. Without the bad times we can never experience the good and wonderful times.
Yesterday when I was holding you and listening to my record player a scripture came to my mind. 2 Nephi 2:25, the main sentence from that verse that kept repeating in my mind and heart was, Adam fell that men might be, and men are, that they might have joy. That moment as I was holding you I felt so much joy from you. Early that day, I felt angry and stress about lots of different things. But the joy I felt for having you and your mom in my life was joy that will last forever. I have no clue where would I be without you and your mom in my life. I would not have the same joy that I felt in that moment with you listening to a record in your bed room. I would not have the same hard times with school stuff and job stuff. Life would be different without you and your mom. Life would always be missing something without you. I am glad I will never experience life without you. I need you. You help be a better person and a better father. I am so glad we have your mom in our lives. Without your mom I would not be the same person I am today.
But life will be hard for you as you grow just have a good attitude and grow from the hard experiences. Make good choice to make life easier for you. You will experience joy and sadness. Be prepared for the sadness. Trials will come so you can become a stronger woman. Your mom and I love you so much. Be brave in this life. We need people to stand up for what we believe and make the correct choices in life. This world is becoming so bad but you are a daughter of God and you will be the bright light that can help people to come closer to Christ. You already helped me to come closer to Christ.
With Love, Your Dad

The birth of you....
Dearest Olivia,
When you were born it was the second best day of my life. The first best day was when I married your Mother in the Salt Lake Temple. It was the best day ever to be sealed to your mother for time and all eternity. It was like that when you were born. I saw everything that was happening on the day of your birth. There were so many nurses helping your mother to get you safe in our lives. I don't want to gross you out with all the details of your birth because some of it was gross, but most of it was so beautiful and incredible. The second you came out of your mother I fell in love with you and finally felt like a Father and Dad all at the same time. A Father because you came from my genes and a Dad because I have never fell in love with someone so fast. Your birth was long and hard on your mother. It took longer than we thought to get you here.But you came into our lives like a burst of sunlight coming through the window. We had no clue how we lived so long without you. Now we can't imagine living without you.
Your grandmother Ephra came as quickly as possible to see you. I called and text-ed everyone that was important to me. So I could let them know that you finally made it to us. Everyone wanted to see you and to meet you. You were just born and but you became so popular in hours. You were born 6 lbs and 15 ounces of cuteness. You came out of your mommy's tummy with tear drops of happiness and a lot of work to get here. You were a very tiny baby girl when you were born. You had a pair of beautiful eyes and sweet face. You got every thing good from me and your mom. You were just a perfect combination of us.
I am sorry that I haven't finish this letter to you. I have been busy working a lot and spending time with you and your mom which you two are the most important people in my life. So I think those are some good excuses to procrastinate this blog.
Now, I have some time for this awesome blog for you, my sweet beautiful baby girl. Tomorrow is mine and our your mom's anniversary and we will have been married for two years. Everyday with your mom is amazing and I have never been happier in my life. We have changed and grown in our lives and in our marriage. Life is just a big adventure, Olivia. Life is all about the ups and downs in living. We should always focus on the ups and learn from the downs. Marrying your mom was the best decision of my life and when you came in our life you were the cherry on top of everything nice. There are no words to say that can express my happiness of marrying your mom and becoming a father.
Life is a miracle to have. To have a body and to make good choices, to become a better person is a daily choice to make. Life is hard sometimes. I didn't know that when I was kid for some weird reason. Change is always possible in life buut make sure you make good changes. I have made many mistakes in life, but I keep on learning and try to make good choices every today. That is one thing I want to teach you is, how to make good choices in life. I love you Olivia.
Love, DAD

The very thought of you...
Dear Olivia,
I am creating this blog for you to know how much your Dad has loved you since the day you were thought of. As well, I want the world to know how amazing you are and they need to get ready for you to change the world into a better place.
Before you were talked about coming to this earth your Mom and I had a lots of ups and downs. First off, your Mom was in a terrible car accident. And then my car had some car trouble and we lost two cars in a short period of time. But, the worse of things that happened before you were born was your Mom got cancer. I never been so scared in my entire life and I have been a part of some scary things before. But we both survived, your mom and I. We have always been in love since the second time we met. But that's another story. Our loved helped us through the challenges. Our trials and opposition taught us many things. Just before you were thought about my grandmother passed away. I bet she met you in heaven before I met you on earth. She would have loved you so much. I think both of your great grandmothers had the chance to met you before you came down to earth. Also, before you were thought of we got a pet Guinea Pig. It was fun having a pet but it is nothing like having a daughter. I hated cleaning the cage of the Guinea Pig. I don't mind so much of changing your diaper.
The greatest ups, your mom and I had was every moment we spent together. Your mom and I always have so much fun together. We love going to Salt Lake City and I create lots of fabulous dates for her and I still do this day, only now you a part of the fun dates. We love just staying home and spending time together. I feel like every moment with your mom is so precious to me. Now every moment with you and your mom is irreplaceable. I love every second I spent holding you and talking to you and loving you. I think I love your mom even more as I get to know you because you came from both your mom and myself. Since the day I met your mom I love her everyday more and more. I grow so attach to your mom I have no clue what I would do without your mom. I hope I will never find out. And now with you I am also attached to you and very protective over you. I have never loved anyone the way I love you. I love your mom in a very different and real way. I believe there are many different kinds of love. A Dad loving a daughter is one kind of love I have never felt before in my life, until you. I thank you for your influence in my life thus far. I am not a perfect man yet, but your mom makes me a better man everyday. I know you will help me become the man that God wants me to be.
The first time your mom and I thought of you to come into our crazy life was in the Logan, Temple. The House of God. Your mom was praying about having a baby and so was I. We both agreed to start preparing for you to be in our little family. And thus the process of you were thought of.
Your mom and you (Olivia) are the greatest things that have ever happened to me. That is why I am writing to you and that is why I will talk about your mom a lot in these letters to you. So you can get to know us through all aspects of life. I love you my little girl
