With Father's Day on June 19th, Tara has quite fittingly dedicated this week's Gallery to "Dads". So I am dedicating my entry to my husband Ian.
He is the most dedicated, committed, caring, patient, understanding and resourceful parent I have ever come across. He puts me to shame at times! He is a wonderful dad to our five kids.
Joe at 22 aspires to be like his Dad and is following his career path.
Megan at 19 knows that if she phones her Daddy at 2am from university because she has a problem, he will be there in a shot to help her.
15 year old Ella shares her Dad's passion for music and they play their guitars together which fills me with pride.
Kizzy is 8 and is Daddy's little ray of sunshine who makes him laugh.
Little Freddy is Daddy's little man who runs to the door with his arms flung open wide when he hears his Dad come home from work.
Go check out other entries at Sticky Fingers and help celebrate all the other wonderful Dads out there!!
I wouldn't rather anyone to be my Daddy. He's amazing and I love him so so so much. <3

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post Wendy. I absolutely love all the photos as well- I love that it is a separate one of each of your children with their Daddy. He looks like a fab dad. xx
ReplyDeleteLove these photos. I don't think of myself as being special so having your wife tell you she think you are a great dad makes me feel a bit proud. I love being a dad it's easy all you need to do is smile and enjoy every minute of it. Love my wife and I love my kids.XXX

ReplyDeletep.s. I'm on catch-up from my hols still so sorry for crawling your blog :)
I don't know how come I missed this blog. I think Ian is one of the nicest people I know and I am so pleased to have him as my Son-in-Law - although I must confess I think of him more as a Son. He is, as you say, totally committed to his family and I can understand why you all love him so much.
