Happy Father's Day 2010

We had a wonderful Father's Day this year. The girls made a scrapbook album and a photo collage for Scott that he will have forever. We spent the day at the beach and just had a wonderful time together. I was supposed to make a yummy french toast breakfast but we wanted to hit the road early so he took a raincheck. He's awesome that way. He gives of himself all the time and he always gives his best and he never complains. I'm not really that way. :-) He always has a clear perspective on things. He is authentic, honest, committed and loyal and an incredible father to Jessica and Lauren. They can't wait for him to be off from work or for him to walk through the door at night. They love to cuddle with him and play with him. He is adored by them.

In many ways, my dad and my husband are different. However, there are some sweet similarities. My dad is patient, calm and is never quick to anger. So is Scott. My dad is honest, faithful, kind and is the rock I always knew I could lean on when I was growing up. So is Scott. He is completely committed to my mom and to his family. So is Scott. They also LOVE hockey but that is a minor point. :-)

I am so blessed to have these two men in my lives. I honor them today. I appreciate them and love them more than words can say.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

Potty Training Lauren

Well today is Tuesday June 15th. It is Lauren's first day of potty training. I totally forget how to go about doing this. I was actually still trying to hold off on the whole thing until after my mom left. However, Lauren kept asking me to change her and sit her on the potty every time she peed...every time. She wanted to wear her Dora underwear too. It is the middle of the afternoon and she's gone in the potty a few times and had 2 accidents. I really hope I didn't start this too early with her.

I'm glad we can just be home today and tomorrow to get a good start on this whole thing. I get nervous taking them out the first time. I'm not a big fan of public accidents. Well lets hope all goes well.... :-)
