an unconditional love…

Every Fathers Day my heart celebrates the memories of my dad who absolutely knew what it meant to show unconditional love for his four girls.

He wasn’t perfect.
But who is?
What was perfect, was the way he never let us go.  
We were in his heart until the day he died.

And there isn’t a day that doesn’t go by that I don’t selfishly wish with all my heart that he was still with me today….
able to parent, able to grandparent….able to love.
I miss you Dad, so much it aches at times.
But I know, I know in my heart that when I met Jimmy just a month later….that my dad had to have had a hand in it.

{he must have put in a good word to God}
And now my kids get to experience the same kind of amazing unconditional love from him that I always had from mine.

{walking in unconditional love, it’s the only way}
And it’s funny and amazing how God works…
Because it’s been a rough few years for me, feeling lost without parents….
Watching others who have them, and feeling my heart heavy with a longing…
And then more than 3 years ago we met Greg….
Who we refer to as our “Dad from God.”
{and i know we’re not the only ones!}

He has been incredibly loving, wise, always there to listen and guide us….
and once again…
in the true spirit of a father…
He has always freely given us an unconditional love.
So, to all three of these men….
I give my heart.
My own unconditional love.
Happy Fathers Day.

  1. I am sorry to hear about this. I am also without parents at a young age, and it is very hard! Thinking of you.

  2. What a sweet post!! You have some amazing men in your life and a sweet daddy smiling down on you. Lucky girl.

  3. Unconditional love totally bridges the gap for imperfection. I feel the same way about my dad. I’m so sorry that you lost him, I know he’s looking down on you so proud of the woman you are.

  4. omg. these pictures are beyond cute. thrilled I stumbled upon your blog. I’m following, I hope you will as well. I started my blog a little over 3 months ago after graduating from college in the south and moving across the country to LA. The site’s all about celebrity fashion from the point of view of an LA stylist. I’d love if if you’d stop by to see multiple post a day on all the latest celebrity fashion news. Any support would be awesome. Thanks love. xoxo

  5. This was a beautiful post! I also lost my dad 5 years ago. He was my best friend, and I miss him like crazy.

    You are so lucky to still have great people in your life, and it’s great that you appreciate them for everything they are for you. I know I thank God every day for my mom, sister, and friends!
