Eric is the absolute best! I can sit here and talk about him because he doesn't check the blog! muahhahahahah! I'm really so very grateful for this guy! He is the greatest dad!
He only grew up with one younger brother that was close to him in age so he's never ever been around small children before....... that does not matter at all. He's so awesome about taking the kids when I have things to do in the evenings. And he enjoys it! They sure love their daddy!
My heart melted in a pile of mush yesterday watching them together. Eric has been designing and building his own chicken coop this week. Peyton was out there helping him with the project. Eric also took him to pick up three chickens in the evening. When they returned, Eric said that Peyton was sooooo giddy about these chickens!!! So darn excited! Eric looked over at Peyton and asked him what happened when they got the chickens. It was adorable to watch them take turns telling me how one of the chickens escaped and flew into the garage and landed on a car. They really are just two peas in a pod. Peyton was literally glowing with exitement about the chicken stuff......... and was completely covered in dirt from head to toe. Eric had taken him to Walmart, to pick up the chickens, etc just like that...... does that matter? NO! I love how much Peyton loves his daddy, how excited he became about the chickens because Eric was, and how willing Eric is to let Peyton be with him wherever he is. That's what matters....... the father son bond these two have going on!
Eric loves his little girl too! Sadie's not old enough to help out with projects but Eric frequently just stares at little Sadie and exclaims, "She's soooo darn beautiful!" She is! We will laugh together about the little things she does! He is one proud papa!
