Father?s Day is EXTRA special around our house because??.we have 2 dads we get to celebrate! While many may see our split family and feel sad for us, we all feel incredibly grateful to be a part of each other?s lives. And I am not exaggerating one little bit. Sure, it has been (and can be) tough at times?but what non-split family doesn?t have tough times too, ya know? What I can say is that there is more silver-lining to our situation than anything else ?. To name a few:

? While Chris is the biological dad of Cash and Ruby, and Derek is the biological dad of Matix and Marley, all 4 of them really do have two dads. Derek and Chris both love all 4 kids like they are their own. For those of you that know us, you have witnessed this and can attest to this truth!

? We all get 2 times as much support, care, and concern. Legit ? whether Chris is on the road or not, we all know and feel safe having Derek as our extra set of eyes on our family. No, he does not live with us (ha!) but he cares deeply about everyone in our home, and is our family?s second source of protection at all times.

? The kids get to bring 2 dads to school on Parent Career Day, and get 2 dads to help out during school holiday parties ?. It?s pretty amazing with all 3 of us there!

? And the kids? favorite thing: There are 2 dads to hug them, tease them, teach them, and love them ?.

Like these kiddos, I feel incredibly blessed to have both of these two dads in my kiddos? lives. It isn?t luck that got us here though?it?s hard work on all of our parts, especially those two men. It takes both of them (and me, of course) starting every single day by remembering what is most important in their lives?our kids. We all know that as long as we keep that in mind, put the kids first, and our disagreements second, it will all work out ?. Thanks to our hard work (especially the efforts from Chris and Derek), we are all not only an amazing, modern family?but also awesome friends ?.

So what did we get these 2 amazing fathers for Father?s Day? Some pretty good stuff, I gotta admit! Taking a step back, none of this?and I mean none of this?would be possible without my amazingly talented helpers ? Tayla and Kalala (as Cash pronounces their names). Tayla and Kalala knew I wanted something heartfelt from the kiddos, and boy did they ever produce! Within about 5 hours of texting them my plea for help, they came up with these?

Derek got one too?but I don?t have a pic of his ?. So cute though.

Now from Mom. I can?t tell you what I got Derek yet, because he hasn?t opened it (and he is going to help me post this blog ? I?d hate to spoil it!). But for Chris? Only the not-yet-released Nano 4.0?s ?. I?m not sure who what more excited about opening them?Cash or Chris? You tell me!

  1. Lost my father in May – and Father’s day means soo much more now… enjoying honoring both him and my husband this year!!

  2. I find inspiration in both yours and chris’s social media posts everyday. Thank you for keeping me motivated and on track!

  3. My husband is the most amazing father to our 2 children. He’s in the army and is away from us a lot of the time, and it means so much that he loves us that much. To sacrifice time with us to be able to make sure that we’re all ok and provided for.

  4. My father passed away five years ago, and he taught me the invaluable quality of possessing a strong work ethic. Boy do I miss him.

  5. I had the best dad and step-dad ever. I was truly blessed. It is obvious that you and Chris are all about family and an inspiration to others.

  6. My husband is an amazing father. He works so I can stay home, yet, when he comes home, he does so much around the house and is so engaging with our son.
