Seth and Eliza's Daddy

The following is dedicated to Hon from Seth:

Especially the scene where the dad and son are ripping their shirts (but a little clarification...Mommy's the spider killer, not Daddy).

As you well know by now, Chris has always been the baby hungry one. When we finally discovered we were expecting Seth, Chris couldn't stop smiling and was open for every piece of advice his friends could give him, which I'm grateful for because he gave me a lot of great back and foot massages while I was pregnant.

He even painted my toe nails while I was blimpy and couldn't bend over because he knew it was important to me, but he'd never admit that he does a better job than I do (there aren't pictures of any of that TLC for obvious reasons from said blimp).

Seth and Eliza are SO lucky to have Chris as their father! For instance:


Even when Eliza has bad gas, Daddy will still hold her.

He has great race-track making skills. And yes, the uniform helps.

In fact, Chris a great surrogate at times for his "other family"

And lastly...he's Iron Man's sidekick. It's tough, but somebody has to do it!

We could go on and on about how wonderful Chris is for a father, but the proof is there whenever he pulls into the house and the kids run excitedly out to greet him.

Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful dads out there (but Seth and Eliza have the best...we're biased).
