Father's Day!
Mike was going over his day today and he said and meant that it just couldn't be any better. His list included:
1. Being able to sleep in till 9:30---his sweet wife had Landry in the other room on the other side of the house.
2. Going to church with his family. He took Landry to the alter and we both laughed at her when she tried to get his bread after she had already taken her own. She needed a double dose of the Lord today!
3. Pizza for lunch and Landry was so good and ate like a champ. :)
4. She took a great nap and let Mommy and Daddy get some things done.
5. We were invited to some neighborhood friends house and watched the US Open and ate a great dinner. They had leftovers from a family reunion yesterday so we ate like kings and queens...and no dishes!!!
6. He got a remote control helicopter to go along with his REAL helicopter ride when we go to Hawaii in July, a fishing rod and reel, and a his and hers matching golf glove. Not mine silly! Landry and Daddy have matching golf gloves. It is the cutest darn thing you have ever seen. The jury is still out on what hand is going to be dominant. Mommy is a lefty and Daddy is a righty.
6. Mommy gave Landry and Bella a bath...not at the same time, BTW.
7. Daddy and Landry relaxing with a cup of warm milk catching a little Dora before night night time.
8. The absolute TOPS of the day was when Landry was walking to her room and she grabbed his hand and then reached for mine and said 'hand, hand'. She wanted to walk with both of us and didn't want to go any farther until she had created a Landry sandwich. We just looked at each other. She steals the moment...so many times in a day. She walked between the of both of us to her bed happy as a clam. She got to her bed, reached up for her Daddy and he picked her up. She gave us our hugs and he laid her down. She clasped her hands together and we said our prayers and she said 'Night night'. We put her blanket on her and gave her her baby, we both looked down on her and told her we loved her. We told her night night and walked out....proud as two parents could ever be. In the grand scheme of things, does it get any better than a day like this?
Mike, I hope you had a great Father's Day. She is the epitome of a Daddy's Girl and I hope you know how much we love not just today but all year.
