Fathers Day

Today is Father's Day and I have to say that I am literally the most lucky wife and mother.  I married a man who is my equal partner in parenting.  He is the daddy of any child's dream.  This guy of mine is the best daddy to his 4 girls and a super hero to his son.

Eddie has been and continues to be a rock in our lives.  He has never missed a a field trip volunteering opportunity.  He attends every game, event, recital and performance.  He grocery shops, school clothes shops, cleans, cooks, does the dishes.  He combs hair and is mastering the french braid.  He wakes the girls to get their day started and puts them to bed at night with individual prayers , hugs and kisses.  He's up at 3 AM changing diapers and feeding babies.  He taxies the kids to all of their events.  Volunteers in class, both church and school.  He has been with me during every delivery, doctor visit, dental appointment and teacher conference.

I have been spoiled beyond my wildest dreams.  This is our normal.  This is our every day.  This is the way we have been able to raise our children.  Hand in hand, side by side.  We both take full responsibility for the wellbeing of our family, our children.  I am the mom and he is the dad, but there is no line of responsibility.  We are in this together.  I love him and am so thankful for this man in my life.
