Wrestle Time with Daddy!

Drew is a great father and husband.  He loves us (way up to the sky) and cares for us in innumerable ways.  The boys and I are “so lucky!”    He spends as much time with the boys as he can and really likes to make the time special. 

Saturday mornings are “pancake mornings.”  Drew makes pancakes from scratch, and Jasper helps him mix the batter.  Jasper can mark his days by this event and looks forward to it every week. 

Drew makes the boys breakfast each morning, plays with them when he gets home from work, reads to them, bathes them, puts them down for bed and spends lots of quality time with them on the weekend – going to the park, taking bike rides, wrestling, playing with puzzles or trucks, etc.  Soon we’re going to start taking family hikes, too – to get ready for our trip to Yosemite this summer. 

Jasper has a fabulous laugh and really enjoys being tickled/wrestling.  This puzzle time quickly transitioned to a wrestling match.  Benjamin is just starting to get in on the fun, and as of this past January, was content to just pat Drew on the head.  It was precious!

Jasper might be getting tossed like a sack of potatoes, but I’m going to keep patting daddy’s head.

Oh no, there he goes!  Benjamin gets caught by daddy!
