it was our main man's birthday yesterday
it was pretty low key
we had sushi for lunch
birthday cake in the afternoon
and then left the girls with my parents
and headed into the city to enjoy dinner with friends
of course when i asked him what we wanted for his birthday he replied with
"nothing..."
but i wasn't about to give him nothing since he does so much for us
i sat the girls down and asked them to tell me
why they loved their dad,
i wrote all the answers down and they took turns illustrating each reason
and that's how we came up with his gift
"33 reasons why we love Daddy!"
here is a small sampling of what they came up with
as you can see they came up with some pretty funny stuff!
my favorite is reason # 11: he doesn't smell
this was one of pia's... and i guess lack of smell is important when it comes to love! haha.

I laughed out loud ... I love the "Handsome" one, mostly because he looks so dashing in the picture ;) What a great idea. I might have to steal that one! xo
That is the sweetest thing ever!!! While I was reading your post how you said he wanted nothing of course i knew you were still going to do something! i love it, fantastic job to you and the children :)
This is so precious and I'm sure it just melted his heart. You and your little girls are so sweet. Such a good idea. I'm definitely remember this one =)
