My boys couldn't wait this morning to give their father the
"daddy's day" things they made before school let out. They were
creative and innovative as usual. My husband enjoyed all the love and attention
they poured over him. From simple writings of "you're an awesome dad"
to pictures drawn. Our seven-year-old's teacher used their class pictures in
the Father's Day project.
Once things started to settle down my boys reminded me about
making cupcakes. Usually I try and make them look as cute as possible. This
time I did the cooking portion, they made their own decorations, and it was
truly "home made". They delighted in writing on printer paper... cutting
them out... and taping them to toothpicks to add to the top of their cupcakes.
Both boys than went on to draw "Robot & Monster"
puppets on printer paper. They spent a good portion of the day practicing and
doing story lines. They wanted to do something extra special for their
"daddy". And I have to admit that he is an amazing father to his
children!
Even though a father might not carry a
child for nine months or give birth they have pivotal roles in a child's life!
Men are the ones that teach their daughters to have enough respect for
themselves to raise the bar in the dating world. They teach their sons how to
treat women, have goals and thrive, and be respectful (how to properly behave).
Fathers teach their children by how they treat their mother, what behaviors
they allow, and many more aspects than they are given credit for. I for one am
absolutely grateful that my husband plays an active role in our children's
daily lives. I could never imagine a day without him! I appreciate my husband's
sacrifices for his boys. Today means more to me than Mother's Day (I am not so
selfish to think I do it all myself or don't need him, they are his children
too).
