Recently, we made Wade a Superman breakfast.
What is a Superman breakfast?
Well, it's a meal in honor of the special man in our home, that we appreciate SO much!
Right around fathers day I read a blog about dad's --->http://www.chancescoggins.com/onbehalfofallfathers and how if they want a tangible item, they will just buy it themselves. They are men and that's how they function. However, what it is that they really need is to know that they are LOVED. That they are NEEDED. That they are IMPORTANT, VALUABLE, CHOSEN, STRONG, and that they are the Superman of their home.
I have so much on this topic that I would like to say, and will, in future posts. But for now I will say that our Superman breakfast was a tiny little way to say, THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!
Thank you dad (Paul) for sacrificing some of your dreams in order to work all of these years, to provide for your family. I hope that one day you are able to live your dreams to the fullest and realize that you deserve that opportunity. Thank you.
Thank you dad (Pablo) for working your fingers to the bone, for little return. All of those years of you working 2 jobs....I never fully appreciated you or understood your significance, until I was an adult. Thank you for doing it anyways! Thank you.
Thank you dad (Dave) for working a job that brings physical pain. You have so much talent and ability, yet you give yourself to a job that brings much joy to thousands of people (who enjoy the goodies you make), yet, to you brings a long commute and long hours. All, so you can provide. Thank you.
and...
Thank you Wade for understanding and supporting the value of education and learning! Thank you for the example you are to our girls and for loving us the way that you do! Thank you for sacrificing your sleeping hours to go out into farm fields, while we are all home, snug, in bed. Thank you for the dreams and goals you get so excited about, the conversations that we have about the Lord, and the projects that we so often get in-over-our-heads in, together. You are truly the Superman in our lives and we love and appreciate you more than you could ever know!
