Happy Fathers Day

Happy Father's day to all the warm, kind hearted, nurturing, and present fathers. Those who not only take care of the house but the kids too. Who understand when their partner is tired or about to go wacky and  step up to the plate. You make sure everyone is happy.

Honestly it takes a village to raise a child and I'm so lucky for my Husband. I think when we first got together, I was more concerned with what our kids would look like rather than if we'd be good parents, (stupid 20 something). After we got married, I was so excited to become a mother that I got off birth control the day after our wedding. About a month later, we discovered that Baby DeBerry was on the way. Throughout the pregnancy, my husband researched everything and took extra care to set everything up before birth. He was at pretty much every appointment and was an integral part in the birthing process. Once Myles came, I saw my husband change. The manly, sometimes gangsta guy had transformed into a soft teddy bear (just don't tell his friends).

Technically the exact moment you become a parent is at child birth, but to become a father is a whole different realm. Parenting  takes patience, compromise and, much like marriage, a good sense of humor. Making the effort to make sure your child knows you and that he can come to you with any issue or excitement.

 I am so thankful for you Duane DeBerry.
