I just wanted to give a shout out to my two main men (my dad and my husband) since I can't be with either one of them today. I love them both so much! So Happy Father's Day Dad and Richie!
This is my dad! For those who don't know him, he is an awesome, awesome guy! He has ALWAYS been there for me. After my parents divorced when I was 7 years old, my dad took on the role as "Mr. Mom." He raised my older sister and I the best that he could. I'm sure that was hard for a man to raise two girls by himself, but he always tried his hardest. He's always been someone I can talk to about anything and he has always supported me in my decisions (even if at first he didn't agree with them). He is still a great dad, even though my sister and I are both married. We talk or text each other just about everyday and I just love him to pieces. 
Another sweet thing about my dad is that he is such a wonderful grandpa! From the moment I was pregnant with Julien he has been excited about being a grandfather. He adores my kids and they adore him! His nick name is "Papa Pakki!" We are hoping that one day we will be able to live near him again. He is the best! We all love you so very much, Dad! Thank you for everything!!!

Thank you for everything!!!Now to the cherished father of my children...
Rich is such a good dad. I'm so thankful to have a husband that loves his kids so much. He has always been a very caring and involved father. Our kids LOVE and ADORE him sooo much! When daddy comes home he gets a loud welcome with lots of hugs and kisses! Being with Rich is my kid's favorite place to be! He is so helpful with everything when it comes to raising our boys. He works so hard and isn't home as much as we'd wish, but he still makes so much effort to make us feel loved and be there for us in every way. He truly cares about the well being of our kids and shows so much enthusiasm for who they are.
I just asked our oldest son, Julien, what his favorite things to do with his daddy were; here is his list:
*Play with him
*go to the gas station with him
*go to the grocery store with him
*play baseball with him
*watch Rocky with him
*swim with him
I'm sure he has a longer list, but that one is sure cute! If Jonah could talk in sentences, he would have a long list too. Our kids pretty much worship their daddy! He is a great daddy and we can't wait until he gets home from Florida and we can spend lots of quality time with him! We miss him so much! Thank you for your hard work, Babe! And thank you for being such a loving father! We love you!
Happy Father's Day!!
