Mat is so much more than that title. He is more than I could have ever imagined as a father to our children. We were so glad to celebrate him on Father's Day!
We had just said goodbye to the Walmsley's that morning, after a wonderful visit (more to come) and were looking forward to a rather low key day, so we spent the day with a homemade breakfast by yours truly, an Open House on a home nearby (more to come on that, too), and a lunch out at Chammp's. Mat's present this year? A griddle! Almost as bad as buying a woman a blender, huh? He's been wanting one for quite awhile though! He's our breakfast maker and loves to make french toast, pancakes, omelets, etc. so it's already gotten quite a bit of use. No complaints from me!
In preparation for Father's Day, MJ answered some questions about daddy and gave it to him on the big day. Granted some of his answers are a tad off (like his age..haha!), but it's so sweet to see how he's starting to understand more and more and give sincere answers that are so heartwarming and such an illustration of Mat as a father.
MJ's answers are in red:
My dad is 1 years old.
His hair is brown and his eyes are blue.
My dad likes to wear jeans.
He likes to eat spaghetti.
He is smart because he knows play.
My dad works hard at work.
Daddy always tells me "go night night."
It makes me happy when daddy plays.
I really love it when my dad hugs.
If I could give my dad anything it would be a kiss.
My favorite thing about my dad is he plays.
