Blessed

With two adorable, funny, fun loving boys. Blessed even more so with a husband that loves being a daddy. We don't really have traditional roles in our house, never have. Thank goodness, because I am not always the best housekeeper and I am definitely not the best cook. But more importantly, we share our roles as parents and I am so blessed and thankful that Toph (Chris) loves being a daddy and he is so good at it. He spends more time with our boys than most dads. His time is their time. Some nights he comes home and takes over after dinner, giving the boys baths and getting them ready for bed. It just melts my heart when I hear my boys giggling and playing. They often will wrestle around in Kayden's room and I just love sneaking in to watch them and to enjoy these moments that I will never forget but that I know will someday fade away as our boys grow. In those moments they are just so care free, so happy, so lost in the time that they are spending with their daddy. The center of his attention, with no distractions. I hope that our boys will realize as they grow up how lucky they are to have a daddy that loves to be with them, and wouldn't rather be anywhere else. I know that Toph is not a typical dad and I am so grateful and thankful for that. I am blessed. Our boys are blessed.
