J & K + 8

Does anyone watch John and Kate? You have to be living under a rock these days to not know who they are! Well, tonight on their show, they announced they would be separating. The show was so sad to me. Why does John not really seem to care? He acts like this decision is the best thing that has happened to him. She seemed so heartbroken and he actually said he was "excited." One day when the kids look back, what will they think? I wonder if announcing the separation will help or hurt the situation with the press.

I am so thankful to have parents who have been through good and bad and continue to show us what commitment is. Brandon's parents have done the same and we both realize how fortunate we are to be a part of this {sad} minority with parents are still married.

It also makes us realize how important it is to make sure that we show Reese a true and loving marital relationship. The way we interact and communicate with each other will affect her future relationships. What an encouragement this little baby is to love and respect my husband everyday!

Speaking of that, Reese has the best daddy ever! AND yesterday he celebrated his very first Father's Day! From the moment we found out we were expecting, he has been in love with this "peanut." Then, in December when we found out that this peanut was a girl, she has pretty much been wrapped around his finger. Throughout the difficult {and at times scary} pregnancy, he was my rock. He knew things would be ok! And they were! And the minute she was born, he was blown away by the miracle of his baby girl! He is a true example of a selfless, humble, generous, and loyal companion--all things I wish for Reese's future husband!

Also, to my dad who is hard working, compassionate, giving, loving, funny, smart, and God-fearing, I hope you had a great Father's Day! Thanks for loving us and most importantly, loving mom all these years!

To Matt, thank you for always making me feel a part of your family! From day 1, you have opened your arms and heart to me and I will always be thankful for that!

Ok, tomorrow we will be back to our regularly scheduled programming with Reesie as the star of the show!
