happy father's day

we have had a wonderful father's day. it was simple. but it was special. it was adam's first father's day as a dad. last year we had just learned i was pregnant, so it had special meaning. this year we have our emmy in the world with us. last year i could only imagine what a good dad adam was going to be. i needed a lot of nurturing this time last year as i was terribly sick with morning (all day) sickness. adam was constantly running out to find things to either help me feel better or that i could possibly eat. mashed potatoes were a favorite as was ginger ale, saltine crackers and plain white toast. with four whole months of parenthood under our belts, i can now attest that adam is a better father than i could have even imagined. and being a great father has made him an even better husband. through all the trials and complications we've encountered he has only grown and stretched as a man. his strength, faith and support build me up and keep me going. and the love he oozes for our sweet emmy makes me love him even more. he is my perfect partner and he is the perfect dad for emmy. so with that, i say happy first father's day adam. and here's to a lifetime more in our future together.
