Each one Special

The relationships between him and each of the kids are as unique as they are. There is a shared sense of humour, dreams of adventure, hobbies, openness, silliness, exploring. Beautiful, each one, growing and changing in such amazing ways. As Shai grows, his love for his Daddy-o doubles daily.


The countless hours they can spend reading together laying piggyback fashion, or wrestling 'kung-fu', sharing a bowl of cereal or a popsicle on the porch, the way they stop whatever they are doing and rub their heads together in an almost spiritual moment, getting equally excited over spotting a motorcycle or dressing in scarves. All of it is beautiful. My heart swells watching this man I love, father in such a gentle way. Wow.To watch, be a part of it, is truly an amazing gift. A blessing.








I just happened to hear Shai knocking on the door, for Daddy-o to come see him. Daddy-o answered to Shai gifting him with these flowers he had picked, topped off with a kiss.
