I'm a tad late on the Father's Day post. We just had so much fun last Sunday and I didn't get a chance until today to get on the laptop. And anytime I have a chance to dote on my guy, I want to take it!
I could not ask for better Daddy for our boys than J. He loves them so much. When he walks through the front door at the end of the day the boys are always there to greet him with squeals and smiles. He is the type of dad who gets down on the floor and plays with them. He holds and hugs them and patiently teaches and guides them. He works hard for his family and we are so blessed to have him leading us!
For Father's Day this year I got the boys together for pictures. The idea was for the boys to hold signs that would line up to read "Happy Father's Day!" and "We love Papa" and "Papaw". I had seen a few different versions on Pinterest and thought it would be a great gift.
Well I was right about it being a great gift, everyone loved them, especially J! It was a simple idea, but even the simplest idea can turn complicated when 1 year old twins are involved. They weren't interested in holding signs imagine that, right. With Levi I couldn't catch him looking at the camera. And Liam, well, he wouldn't sit still for more than a few seconds. Signs were thrown to the ground, stomped on, and sat on. Tru was a huge help with distracting and yes even tossing a few crackers in laps just so I could get a still shot. There was only one melt down. In the end I had a lot of pictures and only a few that I thought would work.
I guess when your 1 you really have no desire to pose for pictures. It makes me laugh after looking at our out-take photos. Tru was more than willing to pose and have his photo taken. He has always enjoyed that, one might say he's a little bit of a ham. It all turned out great in the end and I think J had the best Father's Day yet!
