We love you!

Jason has been a SAHD for the past few years, and I couldn't have asked for a better person to raise our girls. The girls love their daddy so much and it's not hard to see why:
He's a kid. Unlike a women he wouldn't see everything that needed to be done and feel like it all had to be done today. That means he would actually have play time with the girls. He would read books, play puzzles, color, draw pictures, push on the swings, jump on the tramp and do all sorts of fun things with Chloe.
He's a teacher. He would help Chloe with her letters and worked with her tons on her speech therapy. He'd take her to special classes, learn the tools, then work on them at home with her.
He is patient. Patience is definitely not my strength, but it is one of Jason's. If Chloe gets out of hand Jason would never react, but rather calmly tell her why it's wrong and put her into time out. That's not always easy, especially when your first reaction is to yell or spank.
He has a huge heart. The girls will always have a special place in daddy's heart.
The girls were so lucky to have such a good dad at home with them, but that time has come to an end because daddy has a job. Yay! Jason is working for the man now. We are very excited to start a new chapter in our lives, even if this chapter brings crazy schedules, a messy house and fast food for dinner. There's always bad with the good, right?

Yeah for Jason! Your girls really are so lucky to have been able to spend so much time with their daddy.

Love the picture. Not every child can say their daddy plays with them all day long.
