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...

Wedded Wednesday: Thanksgiving Traditions

With the holidays coming,  I am thinking about how I want to spend them with the hubby. We do the same thing every year for Thanksgiving and make a road trip to spend it with his family. I usually go shopping on the day after Thanksgiving starting at 3:00am and usually come home and sleep the rest of the day. I was looking at starting some sort of new traditions on the Saturday after Thanksgiving that we can do for years to come. Maybe like putting up the Christmas tree (this is my vote), taking an annual holiday photo, doing some shopping together or maybe doing something relaxing like getting a couples massage. Of course, we will have to throw in some football and lots of left overs whatever we decide to do.Building new traditions, will be the traditions that will continue in our family  and define the holidays for years to come.  Do you have any Thanksgiving traditions?
