Fathers Day

Fathers Day was far from what Adam deserved. He had been in Phoenix all week working and got home late Friday night. The weekend was filled with errands, continuing to put the house together and taking care of me and the kids. I woke Saturday morning with the flu and its still making life tough right now. His Fathers Day gift to himself was a new grill, which is really nice. I felt so bad that I was so sick I wasn't even able to cook him a proper Fathers Day meal.

Adam is such a great dad. I have never seen a man work so hard and so long for his family and not have one word of complaint. Now that his job requires him to be away from his kids for periods at a time it has become difficult for all 3 of them. Katie walks around the house pointing out what stuff is daddy's and will go to the door and say daddy over and over again hoping he will walk through the door. When he does get home she grins from ear to ear and will run out to the car to get him. When he calls during the day or at bedtime to say hello she grabs the phone and just talk, making no sense, but still just talking away like she is carrying on a full conversation with him.

Even though CJ is still very young I see him just starring up at Adam admiring him, studying him, and learning from him. I hope CJ grows up having the amazing work ethic Adam has that he can learn to provide for and love his family as much as his father.
