To Ryan on Father's Day

[from this morning]

 To Ryan, you're a wonderful father, and I can see how much you love your kids, every day.  Simon wants to be just like you and do everything you do, because he loves you so much.  I can tell you like this about him, and I love watching the two of you work together.

 You are living your dream and flying airplanes, and I can tell you can't wait to take your kids up with you.  They're going to love having a Pilot for a Dad.  I love to see you reach your goals, and I know that this is a strong trait that your kids will look up to.

 You help out so much, and are always willing to drop anything for your kids (or me!).  I can always depend on you, and having a dependable father as a husband is a precious thing that I do not take for granted.  You are a blessing to everyone in your family.

You show affection to the kids, and have since the day they were born.  I'm looking forward to bringing another sweet baby into your world. It made me so happy to hear you say that the day the kids were born were some of your favorite days ever.

The kids and I love you with all of our hearts, and wish you a happy Father's Day!  XOXO

I'd also like to wish a very happy Father's Day to my awesome Dad, Step Dad, Father-in-law, and Grandpa.
