While waiting at the doctor’s office, I scanned through a magazine and came across a collection of articles featuring fathers in the local area nominated as the best dads. Not one of the fathers was extra extraordinary with any super power except for taking their job as dad seriously and holding their children dear to their hearts.
I decided after reading through a few of these dad stories, the magazine missed one. Brandon, my husband, is the best dad I know. Our first daughter, Autumn, is 3-years-old and soon our second, Brooklyn, will be born.
The Lord wanted to bless Brandon with daddy’s little girls and he cherishes his time as a daddy. In the evening, you can find Brandon helping prepare dinner, sitting around the table with us, cleaning up the spaghetti-covered face and fingers of a toddler and then having pretend tea time in Autumn’s bedroom floor.
Of course, Autumn enjoys many of daddy’s interests as well. While Brandon enjoys making house plans on his computer, he and Autumn love to pull out the bag of blocks to construct a house or castle also.
As Autumn has grown in the past year, she has become a mini-Brandon. They both love music and will dance together. They love to be outside, so Autumn will follow daddy cleaning the yard or working on something before Brandon will help her ride her bike or bang on her drums.
Brandon works full-time and runs a small yard care business, so these moments in time with his little girl are very important to the both of us.
I am very proud our girls have such a great and wonderful father they can spend time with, love and learn from as they grow and mature.
