The Daddy-O

The worst time of the day: When Dad leaves for work.
The best time of the day: When dad pulls up honking and waving

Why?

Because...

Our kids love the "Daddy-O". To them, he is magical. To me, he is wonderful. We are grateful for a day to celebrate him. We let him prop his feet up while we fed him grapes all day. Well, not really, but maybe he could imagine we did that, because imagination is something Christian has brought to life for our children and helped me re-discover. Just look at this guy...

Last year for Father's Day, Christian got an old traveling trunk. It looks intriguing and mysterious. It stays in the basement and occasionally comes out on those rainy days. Inside the trunk is an endless number of stories and adventures of which the protagonists are always Daniel and James. The kids have been all over the universe thanks to Christian.

So today we added some more props to the trunk, and we made him take us on an adventure.

And what an adventure it was...all from our living room.

Now, I just want to know, where can I get the machine the cat and the hat uses to clean everything up so easily? That would be a great Mother's Day present.
