To the Dads...

Pretty much everyone has posted all the wonderful things you can say about Father's Day and I'm late. This is not surprising if you know me. I'm a procrastinator. Although lately I've been turning over a new leaf. Nesting this early? Who knows. I'm going with it.

A few words about my husband. When I first met Mark, I just wasn't sure he was my type. (This could be because I'd had undiagnosed mono for 3 months and spent the day after he professed his like for me in the hospital.) Anyway, I thought he was cute as they come, but just a little skeptical. Then I saw him with my nephews I was living with that summer. I went from doubt, to wedding invitation design. Mark is so fabulous with kids-and I feel so fortunate to have the ones that are his.

My sweet Dad. Isn't he precious? I have the Dad who ALWAYS does what he says he will do-early-who slips me a 20 dollar bill as "our little secret" whenever I see him-who still holds my elbow if we cross a street and makes sure I wear "a wrap" if it's below 90. And most importantly, a Dad who prays more for my siblings and me then I can even imagine. I truly feel like his prayers have yielded blessings on our lives. Yea Dad!

Mark's Dad is also a man of such great faith-and his Grandfather to boot. We are blessed by the strong legacy and Christlike examples we have in all the dads in our family. Dad DeKorne I love you and am so thankful my husband has such a Godly role model in you!
