Our Ray of Sunshine, we call him DAD!!!

Austin and dad at the park
Dad loves to bake with the kids

Heath and Austin love their dad






Proof that Sonny plays on the floor in church clothes






It is no wonder their first words were DADA!!!

I wanted to let Sonny know how much we appreciate him and all that he does for our family. The same guy who loved his clean BMW, his clothes ironed and neat and was impatient with small kids, has traded his car in for the messy mini van, tolerates sticky fingers and noses wiped on his shirts in church and rolls around on the floor with our volume challenged boys. Sonny has turned into a dad, one that we love, respect and admire. He is talented, smart, capable, lovable and fun. He can hold both boys at one time, while coloring in church, and looks good doing it. He is a teacher, leader, friend and playmate to our family. He is nurturing and kind. What a great example he is to everyone. He is the first to get up with a sick or scared child at night, has slept many a night with Heath when he needed him. Tickles, giggles, and makes the best breakfasts and cookies. Give hugs and kisses freely and loves his family. Gives up the last cookie or candy to the kids, cuts meat, gets drinks, changes diapers and much more. We love you DAD!!!

What an awesome tribute to a great guy. I have loved him so much my whole life and I think he is really special. I am eternally thankful that he found such an incredible wife. Thank you for being such a great wife and mom and for making your home life so happy. It's nice to know I don't have to worry about my little bro.
Love, Marlene
