Happy Father's Day!
Mike surprised me today with this Father's Day video to the song, "Arms Wide Open" by Creed. This song has a very special meaning. This is Mike and Matthew's song, we listened to this song on the ride home from the hospital ~ Matthew's first time home after 6 long months. The pictures towards the end of this video are of us bringing Matthew home (at the 35 second mark) ~ Mike is all "suited up" .. he was beaming all the way home!! I was sitting in the back seat ... like a deer in the headlights, terrified and scared to death!! Not Mike ... he was unafraid and couldn't get him home fast enough.
Matthew is blessed to have such a wonderful daddy. Mike went all my prenatal doctor appointments when I was pregnant (every 3 weeks.) Spent almost the entire 6 months in the hospital with Matthew and I. He has gone to every single doctor appointment (Matthew now has 7 doctors) and the beginning, we averaged 15 a month.
Happy Fathers Day Mike ... I could never have handled all we've been through without you.
Happy Fathers Day to all the other wonderful dads out there!!
