A Tribute to Our Mighty Super Dad!!

In a culture where growing up without a Father is commonplace, we feel so blessed to have a Father that is not only a full-time Dad, but a Dad that enthusiastically embraces the unschooled way of life. A Dad that is dedicated to providing a home for his children based on the values of respect, love, and freedom. This type of Dad is a rare breed.
Chris is the type of Dad that is always ready for romping around the house, reading a story, jumping on the tramp, and making elaborate Lego houses. He doesn't blink an eye to come home to 2 naked kiddos bouncing off the walls, a sink overflowing with dishes, a living room floor covered in puddles of melted Popsicles, and a very frazzled Mama. In fact, he calms the kiddos, does the dishes, cleans up the Popsicles, and sends frazzled Mama out to take a walk.



Chris, thank-you for giving your children a childhood filled with happiness and memories of cuddles, hugs, rides on your shoulders, kisses, playing, and just plain being free to be a kid.

We thank our lucky stars for you. Happy Father's Day!

Aubrey,
Thanks for saying such great things about Chris. I'm prejudiced, but I think he's about the best dad and son ever. Love looking and reading your blog; you do such a wonderful job at expressing yourself. And love seeing our precious babies when we can't be there to see the real thing.
We love you all,
Jan
