Father's Day

I love you forever. You are my dad forever. I like you. I love you. Will you love me forever? - Meazi

I love this picture. To me it epitomizes why he is such a wonderful father. Minutes before he had asked Meazi to stay out of the zen garden directly behind her. She fell in, he helped her up, and gave her this look. He manages to make them feel safe, to make them laugh, but also to keep them in check.

They adore him.

He reminds me of someone...

Dear Dad, I love you forever. You are my dad forever. I like you. I love you. - Jules.

We are off for a mini road trip today, to see my sister Kate and her betrothed. The kids will see their first modern dance performance, and enjoy their dad's favorite road trip food.

Have a lovely Father's Day.

Oh, and don't forget to vote!

They really did drag this contest out didn't they? Enough already.

    Each time I read your posts the urgency I feel to bring our M and m to Chicago goes up a notch. Have a great trip, I hope you listen to Aimee Mann's "Cigarettes and Red Vines" song while you drive. =)

    Happy Fathers' Day to a man with more fans than he probably appreciates (in the "is aware of" sense AND the "is happy that he has" sense).

    Yeah- the top photo is a keeper. Your hubby is a keeper, too- I can just tell by that All Knowing Look he's giving.

    Yay for awesome dads!

    The fact that he does Meazi's hair was enough to put me in awe of him. (I wanted a boy so I wouldn't have to deal with the hair issue!)

    He's a great dad. And you're a great mom too!
