Happy Thanksgiving Kiddos

To my children:

Today is Thanksgiving. I know your are too young to understand the meaning of Thanksgiving and the reason we celebrate it. I am very thankful to have the two of you in my life. Without you my world would crumble. But today, I want to actually say "Thank You". You hear me say it all the time when you do something I ask. When you do something without me asking I say it. And when you give me random sugies and hugs, I always say thank you.

Today, I say thank you for bringing such light to my life. I say thank you for always making my day better with your smiles. I want to thank you for being you. Your personalities are amazing, eccentric, and full of life. Your laughter is music to my ears and a sweet sweet sound to my soul. I want to thank you for being a living reminder that sometimes, I just need to lighten up and not take life so serious. I would like to thank you for making me feel like a kid again during our Daddy/Kiddo nights.

You do so much for me that you will never know about. I could never put these feelings into words (although I try sometimes). I thank you most of all for your love. For the love you have for me, and the love that pours out of my heart for you. I will never lose sight of the meaning of that love.

I love you with all my heart!

Daddy

On behalf of my family and myself: I would like to wish all of you, my followers and readers, a very Happy Thanksgiving and a blessed start to this holiday season!

What We Do When Mommy is at School

Welcome to Wednesday! Most people do a Wordless Wednesday post on this day, and nine times out of ten  so do I. Today, I wanted to put up 2 videos and a picture from our time on Tuesday night. 

Tuesday nights, The Wifey goes off to her night class and I dubbed those evenings Daddy/Kiddo nights and we have a blast! This Tuesday we had our neighbors Beca and Uncle Willie over for dinner. The show afterwards was too funny not to catch on video. The kiddos love Uncle Willie and after dinner he joined in the crazy fun. So I present to you, two videos and one picture. "What We Do When Mommy is at School"

Outdoor Fun

A few pictures of our fun outside in the warm fall air today. The breeze was warm and the leaves were everywhere! Great time for the kiddos and for Daddy to just get outside and let loose! 

Thanks to Rodney for this cute photo of Mar!

Wordless Wednesday: This is How They Roll

Remembering The Beginning of it All

Holding Caleb for the first time

Just throwing this post up because we were talking about it at work tonight. Remember what it was like the day your kiddos were born? I remember both times like it was yesterday. I remember the smells, the sights, the sounds, and how NERVOUS I was.


Even the second time around, I was more composed than the first time, but when the day started setting in, those nerves were shot, and I was becoming a wreck. "Honey are you okay?" "Is the heart rate fine?" "Are you going to kill me if I go smoke, because I am really freaking out here!"



Both times were so full of emotion, so full of love, full of fear, full of life. The birth, the first cries, and the first time holding my kids and giving them their very first noseys, are memories that I will carry like they were still going on, until the day I die. I will never forget how proud I was to make the transition from guy to dad. It is something I will be proud of for the rest of my life, and a fact that nobody can ever take away from me. 


To my children: you are my world and my everything (next  to mommy of course), and I will always love you. I will always cherish you and be in awe of you. I am Dad, and nothing, or nobody, can take that away!
