Happy Father's Day!

I am lucky to have a great dad who taught me many things throughout my life.  I love remembering that I had the cool parents in grade school.  Everyone thought my dad was so funny and I that made me so proud of him.

I am grateful that I have seen so many sides of my dad and that we have been able to open up to eachother about personal things in our lives.  I am grateful that he has shown me so much love and encouragement throughout my life.

Happy Father's Day Dad!

 I am also so thankful that I have married a wonderful man who is as devoted to me as a husband as he is to our family. I am grateful that he takes so much pride in being a father and that he finds so much joy in teaching Griffey, as well as learning from him.  It will be an adventure have these two new babies and I am so excited that I have Adam as a partner through this experience. 

Happy Father's Day Adam!
Adam modeling a one-of-a-kind paper tie.
Griffey made Adam a paper tie for father's day.  It is hard to see in this picture, but it is amazing! I love that Adam wore it proudly to church today!  Griffey also made Adam multiple cards throughout the day. He kept coming out of his quiet time to surprise Adam with more pictures and cards.  The card that I helped Griffey make says exacly what Griffey dictated to me: "Daddy, If you want me to play with your toys, I will.  I love you. Happy Father's Day."
 
Griffey filled out a questionaire about his dad at church. My favorite answers are:
 
My dad is 46 years old.
My dad loves helping me.
My dad was born in Eugene.
My dad's favorite super hero is Spiderman.
My dad always says "Be good."
My dad's job is to play with me.
The first thing my dad does in the morning is turn on a show for me.
My dad laughs when I say funny jokes.
My dad's favorite food is cereal.
I love my dad because he is my best friend.
 
I had the same idea and had Griffey fill one out also that was a little different:
 
He is 140 years old.
He likes to wear cool church clothes and work out clothes.
He loves to eat salad.
His favorite sport is baseball, the A's.
He is smart because he knows I love him.
We like to go back to Eugene/ play with my toys together.  ( He couldn't choose just one.)
It makes my dad very happy when I say funny jokes at him in his face.
The funniest thing I have seen my dad do is laugh at me.
My favorite thing about my dad is he says funny jokes.
