My husband was out of town for three days this week. He went skiing with some of his family and friends. It wasn’t that hard on me. I like alone time, my kids go to bed early and the kids were exceptionally well-behaved. But when they heard Daddy open the front door, it was an all out stampede.
They jumped into his arms giggling, chattering and kissing and hugging.
I just said hello, grabbed my camera and started memorizing.
I am so thankful that God put two daddies in my life (my daddy and my husband) to show me and my children a small glimmer of what God the Father is like.
And I’m so thankful to our Heavenly Father who lavishes us with love.
How great is the love the Father has given us so freely!
Now we can be called children of God. 1 John 3:1
So you are no longer slaves, but God’s children; and since you are his children,
he has made you also heirs. Galatians 4:7
A father is tender and kind to his children. Psalm 103:13

Love this post. My girls are the same with their Daddy. Growing up in a single-parent home, I really appreciate my husband’s example of fatherhood. I have a great relationship with my dad, but it’s different since I didn’t live with him. I can see how special the relationship between my husband and our girls is for both sides, and definitely the parallels between our relationship with our Heavenly Father.
