father's day


father's day has come again - and i still cannot get over how obsessed with her daddy this little girl is! she follows him everywhere and greets him at the door at the end of each day yelling "daddydaddydaddydaddydadddddyyyyy!!!" it's exactly the way i felt about my dad as a little girl - i remember him coming home from work and rushing out to the yard where he would let me ride about 10 metres on the roo bar of his work car while he turned around to park - then would walk me into the house on the toes of his steel cap boots. my dad was and still is the most amazing dad in the world. i have never felt safer than i have on his lap as a child and he still makes me light up with just the sound of his voice. we love to joke together and even now my mother gets furious with us when we are facetiming and instead of talking we just pull ridiculous faces at each other the whole time. oops. sorry mum. i love you dad! i still consider myself the luckiest little girl in the world!


it makes me so happy to know that this little girl and her daddy are well on their way to having the same kind of relationship that i had with mine. i mean for real - look at her loving him in these pictures! she only has eyes for daddy. cutest thing out.



today also marks a sad occasion in our house - it's been 6 years today since my father's father joseph passed away - on father's day. we were incredibly close and i count myself lucky to have known him so well, when so many people have never even known their grandparents. i know he and my grandmother are together and happy, yet still cannot wait to see him again. i love you and miss you everyday grandad! x
'til we meet again...
