Happy Father's Day!

We celebrated Father's Day this morning by waking Kevin up at 6:30 to give him gifts. He was thrilled. I think he really enjoyed the presents, but it was hard to tell, since he was kind of groggy and bleary. Naomi got him an apron that says "Real men wear aprons" on the front. Penny got him a $7 tool set from Ikea, and I got him (and me) football tickets to the UVA vs BYU game here in Virginia this August. I know which present I'm more excited about! I haven't watched a football game in at least two years, and I haven't been to one in almost four. Go Cougars!!
At church, the Primary kids sang, "I'm so glad when Daddy comes home." They called the Primary children to the front of the chapel, and Penny was excited to go up with the other kids. She'd been practicing the song at home with me, so she knew all the words. She's a tiny Sunbeam, so she made her way to the front of the group of kids. We saw her beaming face and waved from the congregation. Naomi saw her sister and then wriggled off the seat, shouting, "I go sing with Jiejie!" Before we knew what was happening, she was running up the aisle with the last of the Primary kids to go sing the Father's Day song. She wiggled her way to the front of the kids and poked her little head up where we could see her. She scanned the crowd for our faces but didn't look like she ever found us. The kids sang the song. Penny sang all the words with a big smile on her face; Naomi stared into the crowd while everyone else sang.
In her Sunday School class, Penny filled in the words to a paragraph about her dad. It had a giant mustache at the top of the page, of which I wholly disapprove. But the paragraph was infinitely better:
MY DADDY
My dad's name is Kevin. He is 30 years old. He is as big as a car. He has black hair and yellow eyes. His favorite food is chicken. His favorite color is white. He likes to go to play hide and seek for fun. My favorite thing to do with my dad is play. I love my dad because I share with my sister.
I love my daddy!
Kevin is a wonderful dad, and we had a great time celebrating Father's Day this morning. He's continuing the celebration by taking a nap. I wish I had a second round of presents to wake him up with!
