Father's Day

In accordance with our tradition, we didn't really do anything for Father's Day. I believe I made Jim's favorite pasta dish for dinner, and Ever gave him a mug she made at activity days.

I know she just forgot the "n" in "outstanding" for no. 5, but I like to think of the middle syllable as "stud."

She was very proud of the mug she painted for him because she used his favorite color, orange.  

Courtney once said, "Jim is one of the few men who listens, appreciates, and modifies." I thought that was such a nice compliment, and so true. He always wants to make sure I'm happy. He used to check in regularly: "Are you happy? What can I do? Is there anything that I can do better?" He is so loving, supportive, generous, tender, funny, and forgiving, and he puts his family above all else (even himself). I am so grateful for him and could not have asked for a more wonderful husband or a better father for my children.
