A Small Tribute To My Husband For Father's Day

By -

#1 DAD


This is my wonderful Hubby- to -be Claude, we recently celebrated our 7 year Anniversary.  Claude and I met online and chatted via webcam and telephone only a few months before moving in together.  We fell in love pretty much right away.
You're probably asking yourself "What made you fall in love with Claude?"  Well I'll tell you!

One evening, living in Halifax, NS.  I was on the telephone with Claude when I heard my daughter calling for help up stairs.  I ran to see what was wrong, only to find my daughter looking over the top of the bathroom door.  She looked down at me and said "Mommy, I'm stuck!"  I asked her what in the world was she thinking climbing up there.  Her answer was "I just wanted to touch the ceiling."
I couldn't help but crack a little smile at that.
Returning back to the phone Claude asked me what happen.  I could tell he was very concerned.  I told him of my darling daughter's little escapade and we had a good laugh.  Then in all seriousness Claude tells me "If I was her dad she wouldn't need to climb anything, I'd always help her to touch the ceiling"  That was the moment I fell in love with him.  It was such a little thing but it said so much about the type of father he is. You know he did always help her touch the ceiling until she got to old to lift though lol now he hands her a chair lol


Lexi and Claude....

In 2005,  Claude and I had our son Cedric.  There was such joy in us both when he was born.  Claude was the biggest help when I was pregnant and after our baby was born.
I can honestly say that he was always helping with the baby and the housework.  He has always been my equal partner in everything.


Claude's infinite patience, selflessness, understanding and depth for love amazes me constantly and is only a small part of why we love him.  Each and everyday, he is there for our children and they know that no matter what comes they can depend on him.  It's because of this I say he is THE #1 FATHER! and THE #1 HUBBY-TO-BE!





When dreaming of my "Prince Charming" as a young girl, I would dream of a man who would sweep me off me feet.
But, I am so lucky because I ended up with better then that.  He swept me off my feet and is truly my best friend and the most wonderful father.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY CLAUDE
We love you so much and we want you to know that everything you do is so appreciated!

With love,
Leanne
Lexi and Cedric
XOXOXO

LOL Lexi sounds like me when I was a kid... This made me cry because it reminded me so much of my Father you and Lexi were as lucky and blessed as my mother and I were when my daddy came into our lives and the fact that he chose to be Lexi's dad will mean so much to her as she gets older. Give Claude a big HUG for me and tell him he has all my respects. from a chosen daughter who knows how much being chosen means

Halloween Bash!!!!!! LAST DAY!!!!!!!!!!

So this is our last day to party :(  It's too bad because it's been such a wonderful time!  I've loved having each and every one of you here celebrating All Hallows Eve! Our final destination is................ Waverly Hills Sanatorium, located in Louisville, Kentucky, opened in 1910 as a two-story hospital to accommodate 40 to 50 tuberculosis patients. It has since come to be considered one of the most haunted buildings in the Eastern United States. In the early 20th century, Jefferson County was severely stricken with an outbreak of tuberculosis. The original Waverly Hills building was soon home to over 140 patients. A larger hospital was needed for the overwhelming number of patients coming in, so construction of a five-story building that could hold more than 400 patients began in March 1924. The most common experience of visitors seems to be "moving shadows" or "shadow people". These are shadows that appear to have some substance - able to "

Welcome Back Everyone! Today we will be exploring the wondrous Town of Halloween. Halloween Town is my children's favourite Halloween Movie.  I thought it might be fun to put a little spin on this make-believe town. During the day Halloween Town looks like a lovely place to visit and play.  But!  At Night it turns into a spooky and scary place.  We are going to do like most Ghost Hunters and explore this town.  Let's see what do we need....   OK Everyone grab a piece of equipment and let's start exploring! To the right we have a graveyard, who wants to explore there?  Be sure to bring your camera and recorder to try and catch some EVPs.  You never know what ghostly voices might come about.  Down the road a little i another Haunted house, be sure to stay away from the windows, they are seriously creepy. Don't worry Ladies!  We have some wonderful men in Uniform or Halloween Costumes who will stick around to protect us!     Be careful!  You never
