Happy Father's Day!
My husband, partner-in-crime, and the best daddy to our
son. This man right here has been
nothing short of amazing, an outstanding role model for our son Bode. When our son was born, I was anxious to see
Kelly’s reaction to finally be responsible for another human being 24/7! The moment he held Bode not only did I
realize his natural abilities as being a father but my love for him grew ten
times stronger.
Fast forward to today and Bode being 15 months old, Kelly
has been more than just a father and a role model. He has been “mister mom” in my absence. Whether it is being gone for work or
pageantry, this man has picked up the slack.
Let’s face it, being a parent isn’t just caring for your child but
everything associated with them.
I am so happy to have such an interactive husband as a
father. He loves to read to Bode, play
during bath time, go on walks, take trips to the zoo, and take naps
together. We cherish these moments now
because one day Bode will not see these activities as important or fun but to
Dad, they mean the world.
Dear Kelly, you are the best father and I am excited to
watch you teach our son strong values, morals, and learn to live life to it’s
fullest. We hope you have the best
Father’s Day!
