Birthday Boy

Rock and Maggie getting ready to leave for a date when she was about four. I love this picture for so many reasons. I love her sweet little smile with all those tiny baby teeth still intact. I love the excitement and anticipation in her eyes knowing she's going to get an afternoon with her daddy all to herself. I also love what you can't see in the picture. What you can't see is him coming to the door with flowers in hand for her and you can't see that she waited days and days for the "date" day to arrive. But what I love most about this picture is that it captures the father that he is. He is a protector, lover, snuggler, coach, teacher, disciplinary, healer and spiritual leader. He's also my best friend. I'm such a lucky girl that I get to spend all my days with this man. I am so thankful God created this man just for me. I'm so thankful God crossed our paths and has continued to bless our marriage and our family. Today I celebrate my husband and the daddy of our kiddos! Happy Birthday Daddy....we love you to the moon and back!
