The Ideal

I often hear women say they fell more in love with their husbands AFTER watching them as a dad.  I am one of those women.  Don’t tell my husband I told you this, but I actually think he is flawless when it comes to being the perfect daddy to our two small people.

He will ALWAY be the hero to the two small people in his life.  And to his wife.

He is a snuggler, a coach, a comforter, a get-down-on-his-knees-and-play kind of daddy.

He couldn’t be any better.  And, you only have to hear the small people when he gets home to know he is THE BEST daddy in the world.

What a treasure in my life to be able to witness this type of love in my home!

 

Happy Father’s Day, Honey!
