Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to the most wonderful father - Bob! One of my favorite times of day is when Bob's green car drives up our driveway when he returns home from work each evening. Grace and Jack are typically just getting done with their bath time. They both stand on guard on our couch during lotion time while keeping a very close lookout for the first sign of Bob's car. As soon as they hear his car approach they both sprint down from the couch to enthusiastically greet Bob. Jack typically runs out onto our porch while yelling, "Hi Daddy, Hi Daddy, Hi Daddy!" over and over again while dancing, jumping and running (at the same time). I really think our entire town must hear Jack because he gets SO excited to see Bob! Grace gets just as excited but she is never quite sure whether to follow Jack out onto the porch, sprint directly outside onto our front lawn or surprise Bob at the front door! Grace usually runs in circles until she makes her decision and immediately lights up when she first sees Bob. Thank you, Bob, for adding so much fun and so many laughs so all our our lives. You are an amazing father.

We wish an extra special Father's Day to Poppy and Pepere today. Thank you both for always having worked so hard for your families and for being such tremendous role models to us. You are the best fathers and grandfathers!

In the picture above you can see what was done with the paintings that Grace and Jack made earlier this week ~ a handmade Father's Day tie card for Bob, Poppy and Pepere. Happy Father's Day to you all!

What a touching post, Rebecca...Bob is truly such wonderful Daddy!
I have been at your home and witnessed firsthand the arrival of Bob after work. Oh, yes, it is quite the sight to see. Jack & Grace are full of excitement and the happiness that fills them is astonishing! It's beautiful in every sense of the word!
I am so~so happy that we have Bob in our family and that he is such a wonderful Daddy.
Love to Bob, on this Special Day for Fathers,
Mary Ann
