Happy Father's Day!



Happy Father's Day, daddy! I love you! xoxo Kamryn
(this picture was taken by mommy, but Kamryn was smiling at her daddy! Just look at that twinkle in her eyes.)

This is the first year Kevin is a daddy to a daughter as well as to two sons. One of his gifts was a book about Life Lessons on Raising a Girl. It's a cute little book with 378 pages of insight. The lessons span from toddlerhood to college age advice, so I'm sure we'll be referencing this book often. One page reads, "Write this down. Girls cry. A lot."

Kamryn readily smiles and rarely cries, however, can I just say that hearing the whining gets so exhausting! I'm hoping that stops some when she actually starts talking. I know, the moms out there to daughters are probably laughing and shaking their heads no because something tells me that won't end. Kamryn sure knows how to get what she wants even without talking! She is one smart girl who has us completely wrapped around her finger . . .

Not only is her daddy a special guy, but Kamryn has a thing for her grandpas too. My parents came to visit for Matthew's birthday (which was Thursday) and Kamryn was totally happy to be in my dad's arms. When we saw Kevin's dad and Marc (her Godfather) in April it was the same way. She loves these special men in her life! Happy Father's Day to all of them!

Belated Happy Fathers Day Kevin,

Raising a girl is going to be a challenge. Too bad my dad is not around to give you some pointers. He raised four girls and look how well they turned out. Now no comments about the Krickow sisters!!

Kam and the boys are going to do just fine cause they have a wonderful set of parents.

Julie, what a great picture. Can't wait to see her again. Keep us posted on how the boys summer activities are going.

Love to all of you,

Lin

That "twinkle" in her eye is always there when she see's her Daddy. It's her little gift to him. She gets her message across to everyone, just with those precious expressions.
