Hello, daddy-o!

On Wednesday night, Graym and I were blessed to babysit for our pastors children so that they could have a date night out without the hustle and bustle of their three lovable, yet energetic, boys. It was the first time that Graym and I had babysat together, and I was greatly looking forward to seeing him interact with the kiddos in that kind of environment. I already knew Graym was GREAT with kids. My cousins children absolutely love when Graym comes over and often ask for him as soon as they see me walk through the door. However, being in someones home with three boys who you have to feed, entertain, and put to bed was something that I had yet to see him do and I was excited to watch  my man in action.

Overall, we had a wonderful night! The boys were a blast to play with and we filled the evening with running around the house, jumping on pillows, picking and eating figs, and even building a fort. Getting them to bed took a little prodding, but after bribing them with lots of bed time stories, the trio brushed their teeth, said their beautiful little prayers, and headed off to bed. Well...the oldest two did, at least! The youngest, Dillin, who is only 2 and still naps throughout the day, got out of bed a couple times but after a few rounds of coloring, baseball watching, and cuddling, he eventually tuckered out enough to get some shut eye. Once the boys were nestled in bed, Graym and I were able to do some of our own cuddling as I allowed him to watch the Yankees game. The sacrifices of love, huh? :)

Graym did an incredible job with the boys and I was so blessed to have him there with me. It is such a wonderful feeling to know that not only am I marrying a man who I know will love, protect, and honor me as his wife but will also be an incredible provider and father to our children. Graym has such a sweet, playful, and gentle heart that I know will immensely bless our future family. Though we plan to wait a few years before starting a brood of our own, I know that when that day comes Graym will be the dad that every little boy and girl dream of.

Boy, oh boy, I surely found a good man!
