Happy Father's Day, sweetie!

For Father's Day, Grace gave her Daddy this book.  It is such a sweet book that reminds me so much of David and Grace's relationship.  She loves to dance with her Daddy and when we saw this book, Grace said, "Yook, Momma!  It's Da-ee an Dayce-ie!" (Look, Momma!  It's Daddy and Gracie!).  How could I not get it after that?

The book is written by Cindy Morgan and it celebrates the love God blesses between a little girl and her daddy.  It also includes a CD of the song King of the World performed by Point of Grace.  It's a really sweet book that I hope David and Grace will treasure for many years to come.

It's been almost three years since David first became a father.  What an amazing father he is. 

David changed Grace's first diapers in the hospital.  And gave her her first bath. 

He fed her bottles any chance he could get. 

David plays with Grace and reads to her, he acts as her jungle gym, and even takes her shopping and fishing.  David prays for Grace and he lovingly disciplines her even when he doesn't like to.  David is Grace's best friend, favorite toy, and an incredible role model for her.

David holds Grace when she cries, dances with her, and makes her giggle. 

He will even plays dress-up with her and her dolls. 

Every day Grace runs to greet David when he gets home and she loves the days when her Daddy is off work. My hope and prayer is that she and our future children will grow up to be just like their Daddy:  full of laughter, gentle and patient, hardworking and loyal, kind and forgiving, and passionate pursuers of their Creator.

Happy Daddy's Day, sweetheart.  Grace couldn't ask for a better father or friend.
