We love a day we can celebrate Daddy!!!
Mark is a loving, patient, super involved, and fun dad! I feel so lucky to be on this journey with him.
Kate and Jack wake up almost every morning and ask, "Where's Daddy?". Same answer five days a week... he's at work. Then, they get all upset (even though you would think they would come to expect this answer. ha!). We are very fortunate to be moving closer, so now he gets home early and we all get to spend more time together. We all just soak up the weekends together, too!
I've been asking Kate these questions for a few years now. Jack was able to answer this year, too.

Thank you for being a wonderful example for our kids. I love you.
It's blurry, but I love this picture. They were listening to Daddy talk while waiting at the carwash.
