A Love Letter To My Husband On Fathers Day

To my husband on Father’s Day...
I see you.
I see you loving our daughter.
I see you.
I see you staring in wonder at this blessing sent to you and me.
I see you gaping in perplexity. 
I see you in confusion, even holding back tears.
I see you.
I see her stalwart protector throughout the years.
I see you.
I see you watching that tiny heart beating before she was even born.
I see you still listening to that tiny heart laying on your chest each night and early morn.
I see you.
I see you laughing at inside jokes just between her and you.
I see you pulling her to her feet and promising no matter what, to always see her through.
I see you.
I see your smile when she looks up at you.
I see a steadfast, devotion to this miracle given to you.
I see you.
I see your eternal pride shine.
I see ethereal love divine.
I see you.
I see your dreams and hopes come alive.
I see you.
You were born to be a father, to this lofty call you strive.
 Because of your love, she will thrive.
Miracles come true, when love is true.
As a wonderful father, I see you.
