Happy Father's Day 2010

Hey. We got something to say!
Say it loud and say it proud. WE LOVE OUR DADDY!
Todd has settled into fatherhood MUCH better and more quickly than I had ever expected.
It's not that I didn't think he'd do great. Buttttt...
You see, we were 38 when Ellie Sue came along. That is a LONNNNG time of doing what we wanted when we wanted! A baby was a pretty huge adjustment at this phase of our lives.
Enter NUMBER TWO! And only 13 months later! Shazam!!
Now our world IS their world!
Todd plays a whole lot more golf. He lets them fix his hair. He paints little fingernails and toenails. He has even learned the importance of monogrammed panties when they are wearing dresses!
Yep. I have a pretty good husband! I think I have mentioned this before, but I have a friend, an older lady, who told me when I was dating Todd, "I like him. He has twinkly eyes." I knew what she meant! I had noticed that before too!
My twinkly eyed husband.
I love you and the life we have together!
Melanie
