Happy Fathers Day

Not only is he the man who fit everything on my list of "hopefully's" as far as the man of my dreams... He is also the best dad. (besides George and Lee)...Coby is so funny and witty and clever... we have so much fun with him... ! This is something that makes him the best Father.
Another thing that makes him the best Father is the way he honors the priesthood that he holds and the way he presides over our family and makes each one of us feel loved and confident and important.
Not only is he the best Dad... he is also the best fort builder, the best bug catcher, the best at funny faces, the best at reading storys, the best at sick day cuddles, and the best cookie maker (yes, I said cookie maker, he is an awesome cook!)
Coby has so many things that put him in the best dad Category, but, this year as we celebrate Fathers Day, one of the ones that sticks out to us is that he always puts us first. No matter how clammered his day was, or how frustrating, we would never know it. When he gets home from work or wherever he was, and no matter how busy he is with his job, side business, or church calling... he always gives the best of himself, he always has a smile and a possitive attitude, and always seems refreshed to see the boys.... it's as if, he's just been waitin' around to see us!
Another one... is his unselfish service.. He is always serving others, or looking for ways to do so... and as Jess puts it "his heart is bigger than his brain..." he has a huge heart, and usually acts from it. I love that about him.
You know... Coby makes raising boys simple. I always prayed to know how to raise my children, and my prayers are answered everyday... because Coby, by the way he lives, makes my job easy... all I have to say is... "Just be like your Father."

That was so sweet Brandi. Coby should feel privileged to have such an awesome and thoughtful wife and 3 great kids too. I know I haven't met you Coby, but you should know that Brandi always has so many nice things to say about you and she really seems to respect and love you.

I've known Coby now for a very long time. I couldn't agree more! He must have learned it from his father! Two great men in my eyes!!!
Thanks for sharing.
