When a woman considers marrying a man, she can't help but think of what type of father he will be. I knew from the moment I met Mike he would be an amazing dad. In him I've seen what unconditional love between a father and daughter really looks like. He has learned all of his wonderful qualities from his father, the man I am also blessed to call my father-in-law. Through Mike and Glenn I see love, forgiveness, grace, passion, sacrifice, humor, gentleness, and have experienced small glimpses into how my heavenly father views me.
I am so overwhelmed to watch Mike with Kenzie sometimes. His attention and gentleness are nothing short of sweet. You can see his intense love for his baby girl as he plays with her, carries her around, and rescues her when she gets stuck in new places. Through him I will see my daughter be raised with the daddy I didn't get to have. I know I will watch in adoration as he tosses her in the air, lets her dance on his feet, wipes away her tears when she falls, loves and serves her mother, takes her on daddy/daughter dates, and overall showers her in the love and grace that God shows us. Could I ever ask for anything more?
