Happy Fathers Day Sam

Why I love Sam I Am

Yesterday was Father’s Day and I am sure most of you didn’t spend it reading other peoples blogs but instead with your families. I’ve been thinking for a while of all the things I could write about Sam for Father’s Day and one thing stuck more than the others of why I love him so much.

I know that he doesn’t talk much about his family on his blog but that is mainly because of me. I am sure you are all wonderful people but it helps me feel safe and protected and that is why he refrains. If you only knew how much of a family man he is! I would have to say that is probably the most amazing side of Sam right next to how he loves me. But we’ll save that for another day!

The one thing I love about Sam is that he loves his family more than himself. Many guys love their families- but they love themselves more. When you value yourself, you can properly love those that are closest to you.

Growing up his family didn’t have much but the bare essentials and because his father was a paster they moved around quite a bit. I think Sam went to about 13 different schools. But through it all he learned to value what they did have and that was each other. I couldn’t believe it the first time I saw the way he treated his sisters and mother. I had never seen anything like it and none of him has ever changed. On Mother’s Day when we write cards to our families I tell his mother Annie if we can raise our boys like you and Paul (Sam’s Dad) raised Sam I would be completely content. Sam is wonderful.

The boys and I love Sam. We love who he is and how we feel when we are all together. When he’s gone it’s not the same. Life isn’t as much fun. Sam is everything to us .Growing up life didn’t seem so fun to me unless friends or extended family was involved but for Sam it was sort of the opposite. He had the most fun just being together with his family and that is what I wanted for my own family. To have a great time with others – but to have the most fun just being together. That is one of the many things Sam does for us as a family.

Sam,
Gianni, Santino and I love you. We love who you are and twe wouldn’t change it for the world. You are an amazing father and you love us so selflessly everyday. There is not anything more we could ask of you. Thank you for loving us!

Happy Father’s Day Baby!
