Happy Father’s Day

Posted by Isabel on June 17th, 2006. Filed under: My Sweet Babboo, The King.

Crap. Tomorrow is Father’s Day. 

While I did buy something for my own Dad, I totally forgot about The King’s Dad.  And my little brother (who is a new Dad).  And everyone else, basically.

I think I spent about $5.00 on a book for Babboo to give The King. (See, I’m using the new name for The Baby that you all seemed to approve of.  Phew!)  I hope he gets a kick out of it.  I also need to find a way for Babboo to write in the card.  Maybe he’ll be able to hold the pen long enough for me to manipulate his hand.  Does this sound like child abuse to anyone besides me?

While I’m not surprised at what an amazing father The King is, I’m still getting used to seeing my husband holding our son.  Our son.  As in, we have a kid.  See, it’s hard to get used to.

I’m thankful that I married such a wonderful guy.  He’s the hardest working person I know.  And even though him working so hard (mostly at our new house) takes him away from us, I know he does it because he loves us so much and wants us to have the best he can provide. 

So here’s to The King for rocking my world.  And here’s to me, for being smart and lucky enough to marry him. 

 Happy (first) Father’s Day.  Kick your feet up and take a break. 

 (But only for the day.  We need to get this house finished and moved out of this one bedroom apartment!)

    It’s funny, that Mother’s Day is on the same day in Germany and the USA, but Father’s Day is not. We already had Father’s Day three weeks ago…

    Too sweet! (I’m loving the “babboo”.) When Hailey was that little I painted her little palm with non-toxic paint, pressed her hand on a blank card and gave it to my hubby with a little blurb about what a kick-ass father he’s been so far. It’s now a great little keepsake to remind me how tiny she was. (Just keep some wipes handy and do it near a sink.)

    I’m loving your new site and design. How did you go about doing it? And was software included? I’m wanting to move my site and stuff and I have no clue how to start. The only think I know is what I want the domain name to be. :-) SO any advice is appreciated.

    Dude! I love the new digs. I’m a little intimidated by the steps involved in procurring my own dot com site, so you’re my hero.

    I hope the King had a happy Father’s Day.

    It’s not child abuse. My Bean “signs” the cards that he gives too. With the pen in his hand.

    ps – love your new digs. Blogger has been frustrating me to no end as of late.
