Tomorrow is Father's Day. I feel like I've been pretty blessed in the father department. I have 3 great fathers in my life that I'd like to rave about. The first is my own dad, Ezra. What a good father. I've always loved you more than all the other kids, Daddya, so I know you love me best too :) I have so many good memories of our lives together, having you sing us to sleep, and especially good times in Inokashira. I miss you, Daddya.
Daddy Chris, you've always been a wonderful father to us too. You are perfect for Mom, which makes me happy & helps me not to worry about her, and you've always shown us kids nothing but love. Also, you have a great laugh. ILY.
And lastly, my love & husband, Jeff. I can't write all I feel on this subject because it would take too long and I hear, even now, my little baby beginning to do the "you'd better get me quick cuz' I'm about to haul off & scream" cry while you serenade him with "Quack quack" (a big hit at our house). But I digress.
You, Beauty, are all the father I could ever have dreamed of or hoped for our children. We've been parents almost as long as we've been married...it's been a growing experience for both of us. I've seen you go through the "take this baby from me, I don't know what to do with it" stage, to the Call-the-grandparents-for-every-little-injury stage, and all sorts of stages inbetween. And you know what makes you so great? Not just that you're comfortable now with babies & know how to give toddlers their baths. It's that you love the kiddos so very much. You're as tender as a mother with them, and then you turn around & "fight and bite" Noah & let him "hop on Pop". You're just a natural, and you help me so much. I love you as a husband, but I love you just as much as the father of my children. Happy Father's Day.

Happy Father's Day, Dossy! We're so thankful that our grandkids have such a wonderful daddy!
We're trying this out to see if we can post & join in the fun!
Yes, I would have to say that Jeff is as awesome as I am. But just because we rock doesnt mean we're made of stone.
Dssy' have a wonderful father's day & give Bossy a big hug for me. Your D&B site is the greatest! Love to the whole family & come back to visit soon... G/P
Grandpa! Yay! Happy Father's day to you, too. SO glad you made it on the site. Big hug right back atchya.
DC, also great to hear from you. I don't forget that you helped me so much when I was an angst-filled teenager & gave me a sense of purpose by letting me do computer graphics for you. I have a lot to thank you for.
Freddy, just drink your six-pack.
Ok, so you did not love daddya the best. I did! (dammit!)... and DC as well. :)
That was the sweetest tribute to Jeff I've ever read.. MAKE SURE HE READ's IT.
And while I'm on a roll-- this blog is awesome. It's like an online family reunion. :) Even Grandpa is on it (love you you G/P!) I'm now, officially, jealous.
Actually "chris" is not only DC, but mom, too! So yes, we are having a big on-line reunion!! xxx
Yay! Momma's online too! we love you. :)
