Avett and I would like to wish his Daddy the happiest first Father's Day! We very much appreciate his patience; his willingness to sacrifice sleep on an already messed up schedule so that I can go to appointments, run errands or get a break; his humor as he sings goofy songs; his hard work to help provide for us; and then to come home and do yard work, garden or cook; his willingness to always change the dirtiest of diapers; his inability to resist wandering to the baby dept of Target and spoiling him with cute outfits; his hum-whistle; rubbing Avett's ticklish feet; massaging his tummy when it's upset; for actively being there the entire time during labor and delivery; for crying tears of joy when he first saw his son; for recognizing and appreciating the sacrifices I went through during my pregnancy and delivery; for letting me give our baby a namesake after my dad instead of after his family; for being a rock during challenging doctor's appointments; for always volunteering to lug that heavy car seat all over the place; for proposing to me so that we could officially be the Bollwahn family; for all of the little things you do that we don't always thank you for; for naturally filling the daddy role with ease.
I hope I covered all of the reasons that we love you! And I hope you know how deep that love goes! You're a one of a kind friend, life partner and daddy!
