Here’s to The Milk Man!
In recognition of Father’s Day, I offer an enthusiastic (though belated) shout-out to my husband of ten years, “The Milk Man,” Chris Smith: love of my life, father of my children, grocery shopper, dinner maker, house cleaner-upper, lawn and garden keeper, bill payer, social planner, camping ace, vacation planner, amazing runner, history buff, can-have-an-intelligent-conversation-about-anything-without-being-a-know-it-all wonder, total fox, and exactly the foundation our family needs to counterbalance my wide range of emotion and tendency towards stress. I love you, Chris! Charlotte and Mary do, too!
And here’s to all the Fathers in our lives. Thank you for all that you are and do.
Love, Cate
P.S. Lest you think Chris is perfect, I add this tidbit: I just said to him (as he finished unpacking groceries and began making dinner), “You should see the blog I just wrote about you! I e-mailed a link to you.” His reply: “Babe, I didn’t know you had a blog.” Sigh. Love him still.
