Belated Father's Day

I know, it was yesterday but I still felt like I needed to express my gratitude for the Father's in my life- first my own, I have always been such a Daddy's girl- I am so grateful to him- thank you for always making it possible for Mom to stay at home with us, and for sending her flowers just so that we knew how much you love her. Thank you for always striving for perfection and for helping us also strive for it. Thank you for always supporting us, even if you didn't agree with our decisions. Thank you for crying during movies so that I could see the softer side of you. Thanks for being such a great Grandpa- and spending time playing with KyLee- and for taking me to the hospital when Jeramey was in Arizona and for holding Ky just because it brings you joy!

Dad Finch - thanks for always being there to help us, thanks for taking us to Disneyland just because you like to spend time with us. Thanks for teaching your son the value of hard work and the importance of spending quality time with your family. Thank you for being such a great Grandpa who loves all of his grandchildren, and plays with them - comforts them when they are upset and of course spoils them !! Thanks for giving us the opportunity to be home owners and for letting me pick the carpet, paint and tile just because you wanted me to be happy. I am truely blessed to have you in our lives !

Last but not least Jeramey ( not that he will EVER read this ) I just wanted to say how blessed I am to have a husband that loves being a Daddy- and his little princess loves working in the garage with him, and riding dirtbikes with him- Thank you for working so hard to support us- and for playing so hard to show us how important it is to take the time to play- thank you for always laughing at me when I get mad ( even though at the time it makes me even more mad) and for understanding me when I don't think that I am making any sense - thanks for playing with KyLee at the park, not just watching while she plays. Thanks for smiling and getting excited to see us everytime you come home from work!
Of course I am also so grateful for my Grandpa's and Jeramey's Grandpa's - they made us who we are !!
