Hi! I'm Joy, a daughter who was loved by an Intentional Dad. My relationship with my dad was filled with love, fun, and trust. He wasn't perfect. No dad is. But he showed up for me in the ordinary moments and the special ones.

As an adult, I can look back and see just how much those moments shaped me. The conversations. The laughter. The traditions. The times he listened. The ways he simply showed up. Things that may have seemed ordinary at the time became some of the greatest gifts of my life.

Intentional Dad Letters grew from a desire to pass that gift forward. My hope is to encourage dads to love their children intentionally today, treasure the ordinary moments they're creating, and preserve pieces of themselves their children may treasure for years to come.
