Run Gia Run

As a child I remember knowing how special my dad was and as I watch my children sparkle each time VC walks in a room I know they feel the same way.  I hope that you are surrounded by the fathers that are special to you today. 

These 3 men teach me daily.  They teach me as a mother how to let the to do list go sometimes are just have fun.  They teach me as a daughter how to appreciate my elders.  They teach me what it means to balance careers and family, what it looks like to come home at the end of a long day and still have just a little more to give.  I love these men endlessly and I thank my lucky stars for being surrounded by such amazing fathers.

My dad.

A man who took me on my first run.  A man who taught me the art of good conversation, who inspired me to be unique and who will always tell me he loves the sound of my voice every time we talk.

My brother

The bravest man I know.  A man who will never stop loving life even if it challenges him.  A man who has simultaneously raised an outstanding little girl and defined himself as an adult.  I will never stop being in awe of you Hans.  I will never stop learning from you.

My husband.  

A man who defines love.  Who is always the most patient person in the room, who laughs, hugs and plays with his children every single day.  Who dove head first into fatherhood with no fear and has proven himself to be even more amazing than I could have imagined.  A man who we all fall in love with just a little more each day.
