Father's Day 2009


Justin's first Father's Day! We spent it at the beach! What could be better?

I made breakfast, along with Mama and Leigh to start off the day. The Dads opened gifts, went to church, rested, took naps, ate and ended with a beautiful stroll on the beach.

Just last year at this time we were aware that I was pregnant for about a month. We didn't know if our baby would be a boy or a girl, now we are parents of sweet Juliet. It was nerve racking and exciting knowing we would actually be celebrating Justin next Father's Day.

Justin is an amazing Dad! He has stepped up to the challenge without hesitation. He is truly a man. He does not shirk at his responsibilities to care for his family. He is sacrificing for me and Juliet and he does it with joy! Juliet and I are so fortunate to be blessed with a Godly father and husband. I look forward to celebrating Justin on this day for years to come.
It was great to be with my Daddy too! So many years Leigh and I were either at camp or Grandma's when this special day rolled around. Our Daddy is very special and Leigh and I are both Daddy's girls. The love he shows us and the care he gives us is amazing. He has sacrificed so much and I am truly grateful. This was his first Father's Day as a Granddaddy and he is is head over heals for Juliet. He does exactly what makes her happy and doesn't ever want her to be sad. He is filling the roll of granddaddy to a tee! Spoil, spoil, spoil!
