Found : Dear Simon
Earlier this week Chris shared this note with me that he had written to Simon when they were on a recent camping adventure. He wrote it by the light of his headlamp in our tent.
There's so many things I love about this letter.
I love that he was inspired enough and touched enough by this experience with Simon to document it with words. I love that he actually wrote it all out by the light of the headlamp, making those thoughts reality rather than just keeping them close to his heart. I love that he repeated the same phrase at the end of each paragraph/thought. I love that he included some of the details of the adventure along with his feelings for Simon. I love that he drew a smiley face at the end of one of his sentences.
Chris, you are a really great Dad. We love you so, so much.
This treasure is going into an 8.5x11 page protector in our 365/Project Life album.
So much emotion in this note! I love that! thanks for sharing!

Thank you to you and Chris for reminding us all of the love we need from our daddys. And for inspiring us to return some of that this Father's Day. My Dad never said the words, "I Love You" to me, but he would get tears in his eyes, when we started to leave after a few days visit from whatever Air Force Base we were stationed at. And I cherish that as his silent way of loving me.

So wonderful! Thank you for sharing this with us. This reminded me of a letter I wrote to my daughter when she was in college that is sitting, unshared, in a notebook. I think it's time I pass it along to her. :)

I love this. My hubby took our 7yo son (with HFA) camping for the first time, just the two of them, in May also. He still talks about it and tells my hubby he wants to go back.
