World's Most Awesome Dad

Caleb, I'm sure you already know this, but your daddy is Awesome. Not just awesome but capital "A" Awesome.  As in the very definition of World's Most Awesome Dad.  Just the other day, I came home to the two of you rocking out to Van Halen (I'm told you were even dancing!).  You can't help but squeal with delight when he turns your frowns upside down (literally) by dangling you by your feet in mid-air.  When you weren't feeling so well earlier this week, I found you asleep on his chest, just like you used to do when you were a bitty baby.  Despite the name, you love it when he puts you in "baby jail" (the laundry basket) and then turns it into a baby roller coaster by swinging you back and forth.  Even more important than all of that, he continually shows you what it means to be a man of God, a loving and devoted husband, a diligent worker, and a faithful servant to others.  He selflessly gives of his time and energy to work hard to provide for us and then spends his free time playing with you (even when all he may want and need is a nap!).  He's not only the model of what an earthly father should be, even with his faults and shortcomings, but he also never ceases pointing you to our perfect Heavenly Father.  So, on this his First Father's Day as a father, make sure to be extra sweet to him and let him know how much we both love and appreciate him and all of his Awesomeness.
