daddy's day


russell, you are a WONDERFUL dad.
leighton and i are blessed beyond measure.


watching russ with leighton has made me love him even more. they have a fairytale relationship; he is absolutely smitten with her, and she lights up and giggles just hearing his voice across the house. she brings out the silly, gentle, sweet side of russell no matter how crazy his day has been. they dance together; they play together. and, many nights, she drifts off into sweet dreams snuggled in her daddy's arms.

i hope she always appreciates the hard work and the sacrifice that her daddy makes to take care of us. i hope she gets his optimism and his faith. i hope she will revere him as much as we do our own fathers.


leight started saying 'dada' earlier this week, too, which was beautiful timing!


hobby and pop, we love you more than ever.
