For Paul

This week’s thank you goes to my husband, Paul. Now, I have an arm’s length list of things that I am deeply grateful to him for, and I plan to explore many of them over this year.

This has to do with his way with our children. He has always had a knack of adding an extra layer of fun to whatever occasion or moment spent together. He has a sense when someone might be bored, tired, or frustrated. At times he’ll tell ridiculous stories, often pulling them in to the telling. Long car rides have shortened with his pass around drawing or story telling games. Whatever method he uses, time always passes quicker, and memories are made from the simple times.

Above is a picture of him in action with Grace, on our 1 ½ mile walk through the woods to our friend’s house on Sunday morning.

Thank you Paul, you are a great Dad.
