Happy Father’s Day To My Husband: This Is Why

Posted: July 3, 2015

A wife fondly wishes her husband, a very happy father’s day. And she has great reasons to wish him so- for the wonderful father he is!

I feel so lucky to be married to a man who plays such an active role in our kids lives. The transition from couples to parents seemed terrific for us. I wondered what kind of mother I would be? What kind of a father he would be? Were we really ready?. Ready or not, the baby was coming!

Once we became parents, we realized how heightened responsibility would be. And it was there, I truly began to feel the kind of father I have given to my kids.

He is funny. My husband plays the fool whenever there is the slightest possibility of having a laugh. Sing, dance, make funny faces, you name it! He is up for doing whatever to earn a giggle. When tensions run high and I am at my wits end, it’s often his humour with the kids that makes me calm down and save my sanity!

From broken toys to broken feelings, he’s a natural at curing whatever it is for me and our kids.

I rely on him not only to assist our kids in their understanding but to make it fun too. From broken toys to broken feelings, he’s a natural at curing whatever it is for me and our kids. From changing diapers, warming bottles, giving baths, combing hair, showering them with hugs and kisses- he does it all.

Finally, I love him more as a dad than a husband ( in fact am bit jealous of it too!)No one can make my children laugh like he can. Even if I try as much as I can, the best belly laughs are always for DAD.

Nothing binds us like children do. Parenthood bonds are stronger than marriage vows. Here is why I love him even more after our kids came.

He is the man I want my son to be.
He is the man my daughter will compare others to. She may not know it yet, but someday, she will search for a man who will love her as much as him.
He understands what pregnancies have made to my body and health. And that makes me feel more beautiful in his eyes.
He has given me a world. A world which revolves around the three best gifts. And for that, I will always love him.

Happy Father’s day to the most loving, handsome dad!

We love you.
