Father's Day


Being a Dad, it has to be a hard thing. The pressure of knowing you have to support your girl through college, you have to be her example of what a man should be, worrying about her future boyfriends, worrying about her schooling, honestly, you could go on forever with the worries. But, there is such beauty in being a Dad. This picture I think captures it in a split second... the smile on her face... Daddy covered in water when he should be getting ready for a business trip. This is true love. What is this girl learning from her Dad in this minute? She is learning that she is important, that hanging out with her is more important than work, more important than all of the things that our society puts out there to distract you. That Dad loves her most of all. This is why she writes the multitudes of love notes to tell Daddy why he is THE GREATEST DADDY IN THE WORLD! This is why she decorated our entire bedroom with love notes to show Daddy that he would be missed while he was away. My Steven doesn't know what a great Dad he is. Sometimes he doubts himself. But he is A GREAT DAD!
