Father’s Day (Di’s Entry)

Today was Father’s Day. Bruce’s first Father’s Day. Today we met Gramma, Papa, Bumpa, Grammy, Uncle Dan, Aunt Karin, Danny and Sean at Effin’s for lunch. While I have celebrated many Father’s Day’s with my own dad, today was a bit more special. I now understand first hand just how much work parenting is. It is very rewarding but also very challenging. I now know just how hard my parents worked to give us the love, support, and guidance that they have over the years. Thank you, Mom and Dad! I also have a greater appreciation for all that my dad sacrificed over the years. Growing up, he was very involved in our lives; always at the ball field and dance recitals or school functions. I know that his job was very demanding of his time but he was always there for us and still is today. Thank you, Dad! I love you!

Happy Father's Day, Bumpa!

Watching Bruce bond with Evan over the last 6 weeks (yes, it has already been 6 weeks!!), has been a wonderful experience for me. Bruce is so patient and loving. He can calm Evan down when he is all worked up and he can get him to smile instantly by making funny faces and noises. I just love watching the two of them together and seeing the love that they have for each other. Bruce, you are already a wonderful father and I know you will continue to be for all the years to come. Evan and I are so lucky to have you! We love you!
