About Your Father

Dear Ayden,

I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you a few things about your daddy!

He loves you with all of his heart! I could tell, from the moment he first saw you, that like me, he fell in love! He loves to brag about you to anyone that will listen to him :) He tells everyone to kiss your cheeks, it's one of his favorite addictions and he does it anytime he sees you!

When you're crying, he's always willing to have a go at calming you down. He speed walks around the house, swings you beneath the Christmas lights, and even flies you around like Superman. Oftentimes, these methods don't work but, he tries and that's what matters! He cares about you and wants to spend time with you, even if you're fussing. He offers to change any diaper he's around to change, he loves to help out with you whenever he can! He has not always been the calmest or most patient of men, but for you he has made his most valiant effort to be so! I can see him changing into a better man for you, he just adores you Ayden :)

Your dad has always had a hard time going to work, he doesn't enjoy his job all that much. He feels that he is not reaching his potential there (he is a wonderful writer and is going to school to be an English teacher), and he may not be but he goes anyway. Having you in our lives has helped him so much! It gives him a reason to go to work. He wants to give you the best life you can have and I often glimpse the future when he's with you. I see you two having so much fun together, being best buds :) I see him reading his favorite stories to you, helping you to ride Meeko, raking leaves and letting you jump into the leaf pile, and taking you on hikes and adventures to "far off places" :) Just know now, you'll never have a dull moment with your crazy father! He is one of a kind, just like you! :)

I look forward to all of the adventures we'll all have together :) I hope you always know how much your daddy loves you, because it sure is obvious to the rest of us!

He loves you and I love you!



\Love, Mommy
