Monday Musings - Thanks Daddy


Thanks Daddy...

*For taking us to Home Depot, grocery shopping, the gas station, the car wash, for oil changes, for coffee for Mommy and all the other great places you take us when Mommy is "enjoying her peace and quiet"

*For letting us put hair bows in your hair and not yelling, "ouch" like Mommy does

*For taking us on great adventures and even when it is supposed to be educational we always have fun

*For teaching us how to throw and catch and hit even if our skills are a little shaky

*For teaching us about space, math, physics and all the stuff Mommy avoids

*For making chocolate chip pancakes every Sunday and making them in princess and frog shapes

*For getting us treats when we are out even if our idea of keeping it a secret is to blurt it out as soon as the van is in the driveway

*For letting us pick presents for Mommy even if they are a hunter green velvet tank top in size small (and for always keeping the receipts)

*For loving the homemade t-shirt with our hand prints just as much as your "Steelers Dad" shirt

*For cutting our grilled cheese sandwiches in shapes with cookie cutters

*For knowing that is OK to leave the house once in a while without 7 bags, a sweater, a hat or a drink and survive

*For working so hard so Mommy can stay home and take care of us every day

*For being the Best Dad in the whole wide world

Love Rosebud and Papoosie Girl

That's so sweet. Especially the "keeping the receipts" note. It made me laugh and laugh. I've been there.
