It was two years ago today that we announced to our families that we were having a baby. I remember my mom's very vocal hallelujah and my dads soft spoken way of expressing delight. I think he may have even been fighting back some tears.
Two years later, I have the joy of watching Scott, in his role as a dad to James. I see his own dad's influence as he teaches and plays with James. Because of the wonderful father he is, James constantly seeks his approval and Scott lovingly gives it.
And there is nothing like watching James with my dad. Grandpa N is responsible for teaching James where to find the cookie jar and more importantly, finding what's inside. With fists full of ginger snaps, the two of them make their way outside for the ritual walk around the house.
There is no doubt that I am truly blessed to be surrounded by such great men. They bless my life and the life of my son, who I hope one day will become a great man himself. Happy Father's Day!
