Pic of the Week - Birthday Boy

Dear Madeline,

Today is November 16th, which means it's Daddy's birthday! I'm sure I will get some great shots of you and Daddy later today or tomorrow when we go out to celebrate. But to honor his special day I wanted to post one of my favorite, original pictures of the two of you. This was one of the very first times Daddy got to hold you and it was instantly apparent how much he adored you! This picture just warms my heart every time I look at it - even more so in black and white.

Daddy & his girl

If only I could explain to you just how much your Daddy (and I) love you; but it's indescribable.  My favorite part of our day is when Daddy comes home from work and the smiles I get to see light up both his face and yours. The smiles scream "I love and missed you" without any words even being spoken.

I always knew he would make a great Daddy based on how I saw him treat your cousins, but his love and care for you goes far behind what I could have imagined. I know from experience there is a bond between Daddy and his little girl that is so precious and I love watching that amazing bond form between you two!

Love you XOXO

Mommy

So I'm totally biased, but this guy was MADE to be a Daddy! Since the day Jeff and I got married, HE was the one pushing the whole baby thing. And, I agree, his uncle skills totally show the kind of father he is going to be-- fun and caring, silly and protective. And that photo totally melts my heart. Love all 3 of you dearly!
