Happy Father's Day!!

I am so very blessed to have such a wonderful relationship with my dad. I love him with all my heart and wouldn't trade him for any other daddy in the world!! I've decided to list the top 5 reasons he is the best:
  1. His heart- My dad truly is a wonderful example of God's love. He loves unconditionally. He has taught me compassion, humility, and forgiveness.
  2. Protection- While I was in high school and college, my dad made me call him when I was leaving to go somewhere and call when I got there. This was very frustrating at times, but I clearly see now why he did it. Also, he constantly made sure my car was running smoothly by checking the oil and tires. This may have made me a little spoiled :) Right, Hutson?? :)
  3. Humor- I undoubtedly received my sense of humor from my father! We love the same sitcoms and laugh at the same jokes. Uncanny!
  4. Respect- I have the utmost respect for my dad!!! I can remember as a child waiting for him to come home and knowing that I was going to get a spanking for something that I had done. He would give me the ever-so-popular "This is going to hurt me more than it will you" speech. And after spanking me, he would reassure how much he loved me and why he disciplined me. As a parent, I truly, truly respect this!!
  5. Papa- He is the best Papa in the world!! He loves my daughter with all of his heart and shows this by spending tons of time with her. He comes over at least once a day to play with her. Ginger loves her papa!!
Happy Father's Day, Daddy! I love you!!!

I also want to wish my hubby a Happy Father's Day!! He is such a good daddy, and I love watching him play with Ginger. He has no idea that I listen to him talk in silly voices and make up hilarious songs while he is bathing her at night. He is so wonderful with her!!! I love you, Hutson!!
