To My Husband on Father’s Day

To my Husband on Fathers Day.

I try to make it a point to say “thank you” every day, for all the things you do to help take care of myself, Braxton and our pups. It’s been a hard year for us, so just saying “thank you” hardly seems like enough…

Thank you for loving me for me.
Thank you for loving our beautiful son, temper tantrums, dirt and all.
Thank you for allowing me to chase my dreams regardless of how ridiculous they may seem at times.
Thank you for pushing me to be a better version of me.
Thank you for not ever giving up on me, our marriage or our son.
Thank you for working so hard every single day to provide a wonderful life for Braxton and I.
Thank you for being the best daddy to our pups.
Thank you for letting me speak my mind  while listening even when you might not agree with what I’m saying.
Thank you for doing most of the yard work.
Thank you for allowing me time to sneak away to the gym, work on a project or just relax with a glass of wine.
Thank you for planning surprise date nights.
Thank you for wrestling with Braxton and playing with him as much as you do.
Thank you for fixing all the things that are broken in our house.
Thank you for looking at me the same way you did on our first date, 8 years later. You still make me feel like the most beautiful girl in the room.
Thank you for watching endless hours of Paw Patrol and Blaze with Braxton.
Thank you for believing in me when I cease to believe in myself.
Thank you for holding onto hope and being there for me during our infertility journey.
Thank you for encouraging my growing faith in God and for coming to church with Braxton and I.
Thank you for participating in my many adventures.
Thank you for being you.
Thank you for being the BEST Damn Father to our son.
You are truly a blessing to Braxton and I. God certainly broke the mold when he made you for us.

Thank you for choosing me to go through life with and for loving me unconditionally on the good, the bad days and everything in between.
Happy Father’s Day to the man who helped make me a mommy.
Braxton and I love you to the moon and back.
