Happy Father's Day

Today seemed like a really  good day to write. I have sooo much to write about but I am going to stick to one thing for now...

I have wished for the last 12 years that I could just spend one more Father's Day with my Daddy. Ya know, eat breakfast together, go fishing all day, cook dinner and laugh the day away together. But unfortunately, I just have to think about all those things. I miss my Daddy so much and it seems as the years go by, the harder it gets! I wish my children were able to spend special days like today with the most important man that ever played a role in my life. But again, I will just have to share my memories of him with them so that they may imagine just how great he really was! :)

Someone that has made this Father's Day very special to me is Marcus. He has made me see and feel things that I didn't ever think possible! On my way to Tooele, a song came on that brought tears to my eyes. A few words were-
         "I hope I'm half the Dad that he didn't have to be."
Marcus is the greatest Daddy to our princess. I feel so blessed to be able to see my baby girl love her Daddy the way I remember loving mine. Not only is he a wonderful Daddy to her but he is a great step-dad to Jackson, too! He makes sure they are always happy and have exactly what they need... and want! One really amazing thing that just makes me love him so much more when I stop to think about is that he goes to work every single day, mornig until night, to make sure that our bills get paid and our family is taken care of. I've never been so happy with the way my life is. I never thought I would have the chance to stay home and raise my babies and he is the person that is making it possible. He knows more than  anyone that being a Mother is the very most important thing in my life and he helps me cherish that. He becomes more amazing to the kids and I every single day!

So, Happy Father's Day to my Daddy in heaven, my Grandpa in heaven, my Father-in-law, Marc's Grandpa Ed and Sid, and most importantly... Happy Father's Day to Marcus, the person that doesnt even think twice when he hears "Daddy",  smells a dirty diaper, hears biiite,  and when it's time to tuck in. When the kids want to jump on the trampoline or Jentri begs to go for a walk.. he is the first to jump to it. We love you!!!
