Happy Fathers Day Adam!
We started the day by hanging out with Adam' s grandpa, dad and brother. Here are all the men on his side plus their little ones. We enjoyed a wonderful homemade lunch and played for a couple of hours with their cousins.
Then I surprised Adam with a night out. We were blessed that the Fishers came over to babysit. We started the evening with a Fathers Day Package through Love Your Skin. He was treated to a deep back/neck massage while his car was detailed. Since he has scoliosis he deserves a good beating to release those knots. And when he came out his car was pristine.
Then we headed over to The Gaucho where Andra and I planned to get our two men together. Adam and Greg used to work together and are best buds. We always teased them that they were work boyfriends and now that they do not get to see each other every day, their little hearts are sad. So we had an awesome 3 hours hanging out with them!
When we came home the Fishers said the kids did great and that Nehemiah had to have Jarad at all times! Avi Joy hammed it up by playing, "watch what I can do" all night: singing, dancing and the like for their entertainment.
Here are Adam's first two moments of being a daddy. These are literally the first second that he held both children!
Avi Joy: September 6, 2006. Ninh Thuan, Vietnam.
Nehemiah: January 4, 2009. Can Tho, Vietnam.
I asked Adam on our date some of his favorite and least favorite things about being a daddy...
Fav's
Cuddle time at night, Sharing snacks, The warm welcome when he comes home from work and Playing games
Least Fav's
Screaming in the car, Question repeating and Poopy diapers
Adam is a wonderful dad. He both tells them and shows them his love everyday. We look forward to watching our kids bloom and his role continue to grow in wisdom and love.
We made a project for my dad. First, both kids painted a treasure box.
Then we made banana bread with Vietnamese banana's.
We then wrapped them up, put them inside the box and sent it to Atlanta. We included pictures of the kids making the project and baking the bread.
"I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness."
Jeremiah 31:3
Adam, Natasha, Avi Joy and Nehemiah
