Happy Father's Day Peter

It's no secret that I married a man who has turned into a fantastic father.  He jumped in full steam ahead into all the crazy that grew into our family. He loves and cares wonderfully for all children who need a little fatherly love, whether for a brief moment in time or forever!  He is open to loving and caring for any child God calls him to love!  

All it takes is a brief moment of looking through photos in my phone to show the kind of love this man has for his family.  It's in the precious hugs for our very needy toddler.  He's always willing to pick her up and offer her those much desired snuggles she seeks from him in the evening. 

It's in the brief conversations and moments with our growing boys out and about picking berries and working alongside one another!

It's in the hard work during the brief time he has on the weekends and evenings after work to build something special for our kids to enjoy.

It's in the special one on one guy time he sets aside to take our son's out on some one on one time and to acknowledge the important member of the family that they are!

It's in the snuggles at the ER, where she trusts her daddy's arms to protect her and keep her safe from harm. 

I and my children are so, so blessed by this man.  He takes such good care of us and loves so well. He is the strong foundation of this family. I am truly honored to call him my husband and the father of my precious children!
