Happiest of Father's Days to this amazing man who loves the three of us girls with a love so big and wonderful that frankly its hard to put all the words to it. Bob is without a doubt one of those epic Dads. He can quite literally do anything, and as a result of that leadership, our girls believe they can too. Guys, he's amazing. I chose wisely!
This weekend was one ginormous celebration after another. On Friday we took our little family out for our first ever dinner and a movie date to see The Incredibles 2. It was so much fun night and Bob and I went to bed feeling excited about this new stage of growing up kids! We spent Saturday throwing an all in Birthday bash for the Bee at our local gymnastics joint. IT WAS A BALL and Evie had a host of wonderful friends there to love on her. Today we celebrated Bob by spending the morning at church and the afternoon with some of our dear friends. Playing games and eating ribs and then a nap while finishing the US Open.
Miss Evie has struggled to ride her two wheeled bicycle. She even got a new bike for her birthday in the hopes that it would incentivize her to ride it. Alas, she has just simple struggled to ride it. She is fearless, but for some reason, the bike has been her nemesis, and we have seen more fear in her about it. But, Daddy makes her brave and together as a family we have committed to getting Evie riding her bike sans training wheels.
Bob is exceedingly patient and loving. He has held her when she has cried, pushed her, held her up, and encouraged her to do this. Evie can, and he has been the strength of will for her. What a treasure he is. His boundless love is the wind beneath our wings and for Evie, he has truly made her brave. Today, on Father's Day, with a smile on her face, she did it! She rode those two wheels without Daddy holding her. It takes a GREAT Father to know when to hold them, and when to let them fly.
In our house, being strong and confident is something we are.......its in our blood. In our house we do big things because we were made to change the world, and big stuff comes with the territory. Today I am thankful that God gave us Bob, an incredible friend, leader, and father.
Daddy, YOU MAKE US BRAVE!
