Happy Father’s Day 2013

June 16, 2013 By Erica Deuel Leave a Comment

happy father's day

Today is a day we celebrate our dads and our husbands (whose kids are too young to pull Father’s Day off on their own). Happy Father’s Day to all the awesome dads out there.

I am so thankful for my awesome dad and father in law…who will help me or are there for me whenever I need.

To my amazing husband, I am so blessed to have you to do life with. You are an incredible dad! Although there may be a slight lean in society’s pendulum that mother’s do more of the child raising…I would not be here without you. You lead our family and make me a better mom by how you demonstrate daily love and patience with our kids. Thank you for being fun, loving, wise, humble, available and present. You are the best dad. My heart hurts for the kids that don’t have dads like you or dads at all. I am excited for the opportunity to open our home to foster care kids and watch you love on and build into kids that have not had a Godly role model. You will shine and I will be there working beside you. What a gift.

One of the best compliments we could give you, came our little four year old. When asked what he loved about you, he said “he gives bigger hugs.” That is the truth no matter how we love, you encourage us to be more real, vulnerable and patient with one another which results in a deeper more profound love. Thank you. I love you boo.

Happy Father’s Day!

A Father’s Day Gift Idea

May 31, 2012 By Erica Deuel Leave a Comment

Last year I gave my husband this wall frame.  In it is his first picture with each of our three kids.  Starting with the top picture is our first-born, Caleb.  It was their first moment skin to skin.  It was the moment that being a dad became real for Matt.  I have it captured in this picture!!  I love it!  Second picture down is Matt’s first picture and moment holding Jeremiah.  He now had two beautiful boys!  The bottom picture is his first time holding Reagan.  His little girl.  She had his heart from this first moment!

What a special moment that is when your husband is holding one of his children for the first time.  You can see the joy and excitement in his eyes.  I LOVE these pictures and absolutely love having them all together.  Our kids love to see their picture with their daddy as well!

Here is Matt’s frame hanging in our bedroom…

This was a really sweet/thoughtful yet pretty easy gift to give!  If you are organized and have your picture albums labeled and dated, it might even be an easier task for you than it was for me!

If your husband is anything like mine, family is his number one love and priority (second to God!).  I promise this gift will be a hit!

Here are close-ups of our sweet kids:

Meet our Caleb…

Meet our Jeremiah (J-man)…

Meet our Reagan (Rea-Rea)…

Happy early Father’s Day to all the awesome dad’s I know!  If one of you may be reading this, just ignore it…in case you may be seeing this idea done soon for you! 🙂
