These Daddies are Blessings to Me

My Dad. He is logical. Rational. Funny. Intelligent. And he tells it like it is. He was and is a great dad. I still ask him for advice. And I'm more likely to take it now than I used to be...amazing what a few years will do.

Even though he has successfully taught my kids that sticking their tongues out is a necessary childhood habit, I still call him the best Papa ever.

And if you think I'm crazy sometimes...let me show you that I come by it honestly.



Never a dull moment around this guy. Well...except in the middle of the day sitting around his house. He'll be dozing off in his recliner...even with a really loud grandson running around him. Ah, 'sawing logs'...he's known for it. Hope you get a great nap today, pa!




Dad, I love you! Happy Father's Day!!



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



My Husband. My Mr. Wonderful. I knew years before we had children that he would make an awesome father. My instincts were spot on. God knew exactly what kind of guy I would need to help me raise children. He is stern when he needs to be, and a tender comfort when things aren't quite right. He keeps us all in check. He is so smart. I really think he knows at least a little about everything. Including his extensive 'brain almanac' of useless sports statistics...but that's ok. It's his thing.

And just so you don't mistakenly think that he is some super serious guy...we don't have to worry about getting good laughs around here.


Honey, you are awesome...I love you!
Happy Father's Day!!




We miss you...wish you were here!!

***signs are blurry, but their faces are great...attempted a video...it won't load...and hubs doesn't get sound in Estonia anyway...maybe another day!!***
