he's a natural.



photo from jocelyn k brown photography.

from the moment that luke held caleb for the first time, he just knew what to do.

even when i didn't.

and every day i am just more amazed at how this dad thing comes so naturally to him.

he knows how to put caleb to sleep or how to make him quiet after a tantrum or how to make him giggle or discover something new. they both fearlessly tackle every new endeavor together, even if it's way past someone's bedtime. they know how to have fun. and luke knows how to discipline, how to be stern and how no matter how much it hurts our heart, it is for our sweet boy's good.

i couldn't be more proud of the dad he is or more relieved that i have him in my corner when i absolutely have no clue what to do.

he is the dad i always knew he would be and yet i find myself being caught off guard on nights like tonight when i see their connection and know that is extraordinary.

so luke. thank you from caleb b. and from me for always being the arms we feel the safest in and the source of our biggest smiles. we love you.
