There are just some things that you never expect. I knew having a son was going to be cool, but I had no idea just how amazing it would really be. Yes. I am biased as any other partner, but even in the bias I am still loving every minute of this. I’d like to share a few things with you that makes being a daddy so good
My boy has the ability to make me laugh like no one else. If I have had a hard day I have to look no further than my favorite mini me. If I need to smile, he’s my guy. From corney jokes to character voices, he loves making me smile and he does it quite often.
He takes care of his mama. This one is an important one to me as I am crazy about my bride. He knows that mama is the queen of the house and he is so good to her. He is courteous and kind. How is thoughtful. He is an amazing helper. He goes out of his way to take care of his mama.
He is truly helpful. We spent this last weekend at my parents house helping them with projects. I had an assignment. Marixa had a list of stuff to do as well. What did he do? He found out what his grandpa needed and he got to work too. He has told us more than once that he likes to work and wants to do a good job. My heart swells with pride.
He is competitive. Whether it is board games or video games or a good game of corn hole, this boy likes to compete. He generally backs up his smack talk as well. We do have to put him in his place every so often, but I love watching him compete.
I could go on and on. Being this boys daddy is one of the greatest joys of my life. I am so thankful for him and I love him so much.
If you have one of your own, take a few minutes to remind them you love them today. They need to hear it.
