Happy Father's Day, Ben!

The truth is... I don't say a whole lot about Ben on our blog. If you know him well, you understand that's the way he prefers it. But, today is different. I just want to say that he's amazing! He's patient & kind and likely one of the most creative daddy's out there! I love watching him play with our girls, joke with them and make them giggle! They truly adore him! It's amazing when life surprises you beyond your greatest hopes and that's how I feel about my girl's Daddy. Watching him as a parent has made me fall madly in love with this man all over again. Thank you, Love!

Over the past few weeks, I've been asking the girls some questions about their daddy and I thought I'd share some of my favorites!

Q: What does Daddy do after you go to sleep?
CC: He tiptoes into my room, kisses my nose, reads Lady & the Tramp then takes his own nap.

Q: What's your favorite thing about Daddy?
G: Coming Home!

Q: What days does Daddy get to stay home?
CC: Sundays and all the other days I have vacation.

Q: What's your favorite word?
G: Daddy!

Q: What do you like to do with Daddy?
CC: Paint, color & draw. That's what we do best.
G: Wing aww-ound. Fall down.


Q: Where does Daddy work?
CC: A tall, tall, tall white building.
Q: What does he do there?
CC: Play on his computer and ride the bus.

Q: What's Daddy's favorite sports team?
CC: Purple Football!

Q: What does Daddy do when he has time to himself?
CC: What are you talking about?  I'm never even there!

Q: If Daddy got a dog, what would he name it?
G: Toot!    CC: Lady & the Tramp!

Q: If Daddy could do anything on Father's Day, what would he do?
CC: He'd look inside our presents so he could be surprised!

Graci smeared yogurt all over and I asked, "What are you doing?"
She replied proudly, "Ceam.  Like Daddy!"  Shaving cream/yogurt... guess it's all the same when you're two!
Happy Father's Day To All!
