Steve, you are an amazing father! It warms my heart the way you have embraced being a father from conception through birth and into changing diapers, giving baths, and cleaning up messes. I chuckle in satisfaction when you call your daughters? talents, skills, and behavior ?Grandmother?s Revenge.? I hear that pride in your voice that they are so much like you were as a child ? agile, fearless, adventurous, mischievous, and independent. I love that you have never lost your youthful spirit and share it so generously with your girls. It is so much fun to watch the way you encourage their natural interest in learning, grasping the teachable moments to show them scientific experiments and the intricacies of technology. I admire your patience as Juliet covers you with stickers and while you comb silly putty out of her uncombable hair. It is so much fun to watch you sharing your love of water with them while teaching them water safety. I know that they are extremely fortunate to have you for a father.
