Well, here goes try numero four. For most other failed posted or accidentally deleted posts, I would probably just throw the towel in with that particular post. But seeing as this was for fathers day...well, one of the most important men in our lives deserves for me to complete and not accidentally delete his very own post.
So that's what I intend to do.
This fathers day, poor 'ol dad had to work. That didn't stop us from celebrating him. Leah made him a sweet little card and on the inside said "I love you". The part that made it so special was she actually wrote the o's. Monday morning, when she woke up, she grabbed the card and ran into our room saying "a-piiiise daddy!" I think it will be something I always remember.
All day Monday, we spent at the African Lion Safari learning, discovering, sweating, playing, 'ooo-ing', and 'awh-ing'. Fun!Times!
I am so thankful that we have him. He takes being a daddy to a whole new level. He works so incredibly hard (sometimes pulling 60+ hrs a week) so I can stay home (for now). I'll be honest, when he's not working he does spend a lot of time catching up on missed sleep. But when he's not sleeping? He's either down on the floor playing with Leah, or helping out with the cooking or cleaning. He even allows me to drag him out and about to the park, or swimming, or walks etc.
I never had a dad like that, and I'm beyond blessed to have him as my daughter's father. And one day, when she fully understands the gist of fathers day... she'll know she has the best dad ever too.
