I am sure I have mentioned this before, but I will say it again. Darrin is the best, husband and dad. With that awesomeness he embodies there is a lot of pressure for me, the wife and mother. He doesn't forget birthdays, he plans and prepares exceptionally well for any dinner or party that we throw and he can clean circles around me. These are all things that I would like to take pride in by saying, I am just as good at those things, but the truth is I'm just not. Before you get confused and think that my self-esteem is taking a hit and I need a personal note stating my great qualities, that is not the case (although notes are always appreciated!) What is really happening is that I have been challenged to be better.
It began on Easter morning when I woke up to a large filled basket of new Sunday Clothes, Darrin had picked out and purchased just for me. I felt terrible, I hadn't even gotten him a tie! Terrible wife. So I vowed to be better, and I planned well in advance for Father's Day. With Pintrest at my fingertips I was able to pull it off and we had a great celebration to honor my husband.
So with all this prep for Darrin guess what lousy daughter forgot all about her own father? Yep, that would be me. Seriously?! (Sigh) I guess there is always next year.
