"Who's your daddy?"

Happy Fathers Day!

Jeff, our children, and myself have been blessed with wonderful fathers in our lives. Our daddies... Papa, grandpa and Jeff have been true examples of all things fathers should be. They have given us countless hours of service and endless amount of unconditional love through the years. Many times in my life, it is my dad that would give me the comfort and "the soft place to land" that I yearned for. And, I know Jeff is the man he is today because of all he learned from his father. We feel very blessed to have the support of both dads, Doug and Newell in our lives. We treasure the "gifts" of knowledge, comfort, support and love that you both so freely give to us and our families. Thank you.

Zachary, Ellie and Avery wanted to share a few words for daddy, papa, and grandpa.

Avery said: I love my papa because he plays games with me like...I'm not 'eady! He is funny and laughs with me. She said she loves her grandpa because he is nice and soft.
Zachary said: My papa wears a leather jacket and has hearing aides. I love to build things with him. My grandpa tells funny jokes and collects wind up toys. He brings me surprises.
Ellie said: Papa gives us tight hugs and squeezes. And, grandpa jokes with us a lot.



They all 3 had a lot to say about their daddy as well...here ya go.

Avery said: My daddy is very special to me. He plays things with me like "store, airplane and restaurant" He turns my nightlight on at night, and flips my pillow, and brings me my blanket. (Can you tell it was night time when we had this chat)
Zachary said: My daddy is handsome and bald. He is nicer than any other dad. He is funny, exciting and does tricks. He loves me all the time. He likes to mow the lawn, he gets sweaty and then cools off. He snuggles me.
Ellie said: My dad is funny, I mean really funny. He likes to snuggle in the morning in the big bed. He never loses his things like my mom (thanks, Ellie) He takes good care of our family and makes our family run smoothly.
