My own father passed away before I was born. Growing up I was blessed as I child to have felt the love of a father through grandfathers, uncles and other kindhearted souls. A Father’s Hands.
But I truly didn’t understand the concept of fatherhood until Mr. Decor entered my life.
I knew that it would take someone very special to not just capture my heart, but also heal the broken heart of one very sweet little girl. He not only rose to the challenge, he exceeded all expectations.
A Father’s Hands
A few years later sweet boy entered our lives all too early at just over five pounds. The image below of our three weeks old is indeed beautiful. But it doesn’t quite capture everything. It doesn’t capture the sweetness of this father singing softly and sweetly to his baby while rubbing the baby’s back to keep him warm and calm. It doesn’t capture the image of this father laughing and acting fast when repercussions of a diaperless shoot emerged. But most of all it doesn’t capture the love and admiration I feel for this man, who thankfully is, the father of my children.
This Father’s Day Mr. Decor will sit in a hotel room far from home. He is doing what great fathers everywhere have done for centuries, working to provide for his family.
But he is not alone, for he is truly, deeply and passionately loved by his family who anxiously awaits his return.
Precious photos and memories Laura. You are truly blessed.
What a beautiful letter for your husband.
What sweet precious pictures. What a blessing to have such a wonderful husband and father for your children. God bless you all. Hugs, Marty

It is always so wonderful to read about the good men, the type of men we want our daughters to marry. I, too, am lucky to be married to that type of man. I just wish there were enough for all of the deserving women out there.
Really, really sweet post. Brought tears to my eyes.
Beautiful sentiments full of love and speaking of God's faithfulness to you. He truly is a healer and a restorer. This picture of your son is one of my favorites. I LOVE it!
Absolutely lovely.
