Father's Day Tribute

Since today is Father's Day, I thought it would only be appropriate to make a special tribute to the man that I love! Since High School, Devon has proclaimed his undying affection and love for me and continues to make me so happy and grateful that I am married to this wonderful man.
I thought I would share a few reasons why he is so great and makes us all so happy!

1. He is very affectionate and kind. There isn't a day that goes by when he doesn't give me a compliment or tell me that he loves me.

2. He is a wonderful father and playmate with our children. He can make anything seem fun and exciting. His most creative invention, yet, is his Kiddie Tidepool that he makes at the beach. He digs a hole in the sand and then puts a tarp inside to create a pool for the kids to play in and they LOVE it! He loves his children.

3. He is a very hard worker and a good provider for our family. He is also very generous. His generosity goes beyond his own family and enjoys sharing what he has with others. It really makes him happy.

4. Whenever I am down or feel like I need something new, he never hesitates to let me go shopping and spend money! Every girl, I think, has those days where she just needs to shop!

5. One time he had this huge wart on his leg and he let me pour acid on it to burn it off and even though I poured it in the wrong spot and it was burning and stinging and gave him a lasting scarr, he never really complained and forgave me.

6. He has a great sense of humor and smile! His smile and laugh is contagious. He has a way of making everyone feel good when they are around him.
7. Nobody can eat ice cream like Devon!!! Not only can he eat A LOT, but he still gets it all over his mouth and hands...pretty funny!
8. He is very sensitive towards my needs and if I am ever feeling anxious about doing something, then, if he can, he does it for me.

9. He has a great relationship with his mom and dad as well as my mom and dad. He would do anything for them!

10. He is great at helping me keep the house clean with three kids. He always picks up after the kids without being asked.

11. He never complains when I am too tired to cook dinner and want to eat out (even if it's been for an entire week)!

12. I love that we have three favorite songs that sum up our marriage: "Just another day in paradise," "In a real love," and "Hot Mama." Download and listen to them, I think any husband and wife could relate!

13. He is very passionate when it comes to politics and LOVES to watch Fox News!

14. He loves and is devoted to the Gospel.

15. He still married me even though my brother popped a pop rock in his ear and when Devon complained about his ear hurting, Michael said, "Devon, you're the biggest baby I know."

Thank you for all the memories and sweet things you do each day that make me love you more and remind me of why I chose to spend forever with you. You are so great and we love you so much!
