Father's Day

If the kiddos look tired--that's because they are--except for Ella of course--she is always bright and cheerful each morning around anywhere from 5:30 to 6:00. The other ones decided to get rid of some of their shut eye to see Daddy off on his special day before he leaves for all his fun Sunday meetings. We had a quick breakfast and opened some presents and cards--Grandpa Lyle was their as well so we were able to have a double Father's Day/Grandpa's Day breakfast.
What a super husband and father I have here--here's him and Ella playing a little "peek a boo."
If our children ever win any chess tournaments--it will NOT be because of their mother--Jack has taught them many a cool strategy in his patient and encouraging ways. (i.e. "Oh YES, I am going to get your rook--hee hee! My guy is totally set up to get it from you and--WHAT? Oh man, you totaly just blocked me! Darn it!")
He definitely does his fair share of baby duty--but he loves it so much it really isn't a "duty" to him.
I love my rocket scientist husband and I feel so blessed that he is a partner with me every day and will be forever as we travel this crazy parenting road together. Love ya honey!
