In 2006, when we found out that I was expecting, Christopher was worried that he wouldn't know how to be a good dad. That thought never even entered my head. From the minute Leila was born, he has been the most caring, involved, fun-loving Dad that a child can wish for. The bond that he and Leila share is priceless and it continues to grow with each day. When she was just a few months old, she had a special laugh that only Daddy could get her to giggle. Now, at almost two, Leila continues to admire her Dad every day. Some of their special memories include: learning about the Fab Four, playing Star Wars Galactic Heroes, reading magazines on their tummies, running through the sprinkler, being tricky together, making weekend "Barbucks" runs and running outside to catch a glimpse of an airplane as it passes overhead. These are just a few of the things that Daddy and Daughter enjoy doing together. What a lucky little girl! Christopher, I don't think you ever had anything to worry about.

His first, official Father's Day (2008). Catching some late morning Zzzzs. 
This Father's Day. No sleeping in. Leila was up at 6AM. We went to Meeker Days with Papa and Gramma. Leila, Papa and Daddy rode the train. This is right before she burst into tears and proceeded to cry the entire ride.

Happy Father's Day Christopher! We love you!
