On this day, 10 years ago...

Becca, I asked... and you said "Yes!" Neither of us could have predicted what the next decade would bring. Through the ups and the downs. The challenges. And the many, many blessings. You inspire so much beauty, goodness, and love. I am so grateful for this life together! I love you, always and forever!

We defied the gravity of being parents of 4 young kids (including a newborn) and we had a date-day to see the Wicked Movie ! Incredible movie and thankful for Grandma and Grandpa for making this getaway possible!

I also want to shout out BanZ for their great earmuff solution that kept our baby asleep and completely content for the full 3 hour movie! The perfect for any loud spaces with kids!

My wife, Becca, is the strongest person I know. Each pregnancy and delivery for us has been harder than the last. After over 12 hours of labor at the hospital -in addition to the labor the days before- my wife gave birth to our wonderful daughter, Gemma, who greeted us face-up while my wife was still unmedicated. A mother's love knows no limit. I watched firsthand the sacrifices and pain Becca went through for each of our four daughters. Many nights we cried together and prayed for our growing family. And when Gemma finally arrived, we were both filled with relief and joy. I had tears in my eyes looking up at my wife holding this precious new life. I am grateful my girls have an amazing role model in their mom as they grow into strong, loving women of their own. We are truly blessed. ❤️

Proud moment when your child washes her dish all by herself. I'll have to go back and clean up the syrup from the play kitchen... but for right now, I'm enjoying this new independence 🥲❤️

I am excited to read 'Dad Camp' from writer and girl dad, Evan Porter! Dad Camp is a novel about a loving dad who drags his eleven-year-old daughter to “father-daughter week” at a remote summer camp. I love a good heartwarming story!

I'll share my review and hope to have Evan on the Girl Dad Nation podcast soon. Stay tuned!
