My husband Joe is an amazing dad. He isn’t perfect, but he tries. He is always there with me and we raise our kids together. Sometimes I watch him play with our kids and I’m so happy he is ours. That I chose him to start a family. That together we’ve managed to create three beautiful boys, and he is by my side through it all. Because lets face it, parenthood is tough. And going it alone is even harder.
But he is my partner.
My best friend.
An all-star dad.
What makes him an all-star? He loves to play with our kids. He enjoys building Legos with our boys for long periods of time. He likes going outside and takes them hiking, sledding and builds snowman. He reads to them every night, changes diapers and gives baths. There is no job that he is above doing. We are a team. And Joe values us and puts family first.
That is what makes an all-star dad.

May 3, 2014 at 5:15 amWhat a touching tribute to your husband! I feel / felt all of those things as my son was growing up. He’s 25 now and I am so very proud of the young man he has become. But my brother is also a great dad and I will be passing this information on to her as well.
