To Our Fathers
Dearest Graeme,
My love for your has grown tenfold in the last week. Seeing you so gentle and affectionate with our daughter makes my heart overflow. Nothing could have prepared me for watching you turn into a father and a man. I am so proud of you. Thank you for putting us first, burping at 3am, driving cautiously and letting your heart melt for our Little One.
The last week has taught me so much already and I truely value your role in our family. A father is a one of a kind responsibility and I know you will do it to the very best of your ability, because that's the sort of man you are.
Thank you for serving, protecting, providing and loving.
Love, Sophie and Camilla xxx x
Dearest Father in Heaven,
Tears poured out today as I considered how much you have blessed us. Thank you so much for reaching out and saving Graeme and I from ourselves. We both need you so much and you extended your Grace to cover us. How blessed were we!? And then, you go and gift us Camilla to raise and look after for you. What. A. Privilege.
I don't know what we did or who we are to receive such a gift. Thank you that you are a generous father who looks after his children. I don't know how we are going to parent and be a good Mother and Father to your precious daughter, but I do know that we can do anything with you. I feel completely at ease knowing that you are in our lives.
I pray everyday that we could raise our family to love and know you, just like we do.
I really can't thank you enough. You have completely transformed our lives and I have no idea where we would be without you. Thank you for being the perfect Dad.
Love, Sophie x
