Ain't no other Dad...

One of the truest expressions of God's grace I have seen in my life is a man who grew up with no father being the best father around. That's my man...

Throughout this adoption journey, there have been many times that I have doubted my ability to raise another child. But I have never once doubted Bill. He is well-suited for this whole Daddy gig. I have watched him lay down his life for his family again and again. He consistently balances truth and grace in our home. He can be both firm and gentle. Strong and tender. He builds our children up instead of tearing them down. I'm not trying to say he's a perfect Dad. But he is a faithful Dad. And he's perfect for us.

I am so happy that he is the father of my children. All (almost) 4 of them.

Ain't no other Dad but you!

What a precious post and precious pictures! Love your transparency. I too have those moments of doubt about myself. Sounds like we have both been blessed with husbands who never waiver and lift us all up!
Blessings,
