When we were on our big trip in May, Jeff surprised Jonathan with a race car Lego set. Jonathan was just beside himself with happiness and kept saying that Daddy knew it was exactly what he wanted. (Funny, since Jonathan hadn't asked!) Even better, the two of them spent time together building it, and they have taken this set apart and put it together countless times since then. Jeff is such a good Daddy in so many ways, including showing our kids love in the ways that they understand. Right now, Gracie just loves to stare into her Daddy's eyes, but I know that as she grows, Jeff will find the way to her heart, just as he has with Jonathan. Lately, Jonathan has been saying, "Daddy is our perfect Daddy!"
Here's what we did for Jeff for Father's Day. I know the perspective is odd, but the pictures are laid out on the floor and I'm holding the camera up as high as I can:
Before Gracie was born, we had a friend of a friend, who is a photographer on the side, take family and couple pictures of us. (If you are local and want her contact info, I'll share!) Then after Gracie was born, my dear friend Cherissa took pictures of her. I put these together to hang in the living room for Jeff. I'm not sure what formation they'll actually take when we hang them. I knew I couldn't do the hanging job by myself!
Jeff, we love you, and you are a fantastic father!
