They Sure Do Love Their Daddy

My boys sure love their daddy
I’m glad they do too
sometimes it is a little comical
sometimes I have to really focus out
instead of in.

I know they love their mommy too,
Not always as obvious,
especially day in and out
spending all day together
sometimes it’s hard
not to be selfish
I see their little excited eyes light up
Daddy walks in the door after work
Those mornings, trying to comfort them
Missed out on his goodbye hug
Time alone with Daddy
Mommy comes home to tears.
tears that mark the end of “boy’s night”
not because I was missed
My boys sure do love their daddy

This is a conversation that happened on our way to church Sunday morning.

Curious George: Daddy, these samwiches are yummy!
Little Professor: Yup, you are really a good chef
Curious George: Maybe you can teach Mommy to make these.
Little Professor: Yah Mommy, you should really learn to cook from Daddy, he’s the best.

Kirk and I exchange glances,
he knows as well as I
I have made those same egg sandwiches before
I am the better cook
Well… I do cook most of the meals
But, everything Daddy makes tastes so much better
I smile now
sometimes I do feel a jab in my pride
but at the end of the day
It does bless my heart to know
My boys sure love their daddy

I sure love their daddy too!
