Wedded Wednesday: Fatherhood



Wedded Wednesday is a collaboration
of married bloggers sharing their inspirations,
anecdotes, struggles and thoughts regarding
the amazing union of two separate people, as one.

What qualities in your husband makes him a good father? When I met my husband, I knew that he had a daughter. As our relationship grew, he allowed me to met her (he was very guarded about who he allowed to interact with her). I was able to watch  him play with her, laugh with her and talk with her. Their relationship is solid and she will always be daddy's little girl. I will say, that their relationship has not always been easy (especially the teenage years) but his love for her has never changed. Over the years, watching him be a father to his daughter has allowed me to see the qualities in him that make him a good father, here are just a few of my thoughts.....
  • loving
  • understanding
  • listener
  • disciplinarian
  • playful
  • kind
Being a parent there is not always smooth sailing, but I know that my husband is the best father that he can be.

One of the reasons why I married my husband is because I could tell that someday he will make an amazing father. He loves his nieces and nephews so much- he is fun and carefree, yet I also know he is going to teach his children how to work hard, and stick to what they believe in.

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

On the Road Again.....

It was between Chicago and the state of Pennsylvania. Well....the state of Pennsylvania won out for our little trip for our first anniversary. It is a shorter drive than going Chicago, especially since we do not want to spend most of our mini-vacation in the car. I have a co-worker that lived in Pennsylvania and she gave me some great places for us to visit like, the Phipps Conservatory, the incline at Mt. Washington and the Pittsburgh Zoo ( I think that the hubby would like the aquarium). It is hard to believe that it has been almost a year since our wedding, but I can not wait for our time away. Even though I want to see somethings while we are there, I really just want to relax. If  you know any great places to go or see in the state of  Pennsylvania let me know. We are looking at taking some three day weekend trips in the summer and maybe a week long trip to the beach in the fall.  Do you have any plans for trips anytime soon or this summer? Share we might want to g...
