We love our Daddy!

I feel so blessed to be married to such a wonderful man who loves our little girl more than life. Travis - I love watching you with Lucy Mills. You light up when you see her and the two of you have a sweet bond that is already evident. She is lucky to call you her daddy.

Here is a fun video...

...glad Maggie made an appearance :)

Before I got married I read the book For Women Only which talks about the things that women need to understand in order to support and love their husbands in the ways that they need. After I got married a very influential woman in my life gave me the follow up book called For Men Only. There is a quotation in the book that I loved and it reminded me of Travis. He always looks at the positive side of things, while I find myself preparing for the reality of what could happen, sometimes expecting the worse. I am glad that he sees the glass as half full...because when he thinks about me I hope the good outweighs the not so good.

"My husband smiles at me when he comes home from work and discovers the kids have drawn monsters on my legs with markers. He appreciates egg sandwiches and Spaghetti O's more than a gourmet meal. He believes that I am a better mother, more talented, and a more virtuous person than I actually am...His eternal optimism changes me ever so slightly, day after day, into something more beautiful than I'd otherwise be. He's imperfect, puerile, and sloppy, yet strong, wise, and loving. The fact that I get to live with him over the course of my lifetime is one of the biggest scams I've pulled of - I keep waiting for him to wake up, jump over the mound of unwashed clothes, and bolt out the door. But he sees my imperfections as endearing. Over the past 10 years, we've both changed. But the one thing remains constant is my utter and unashamed need of him." - For Men Only
