Smarty Fly Dad Contestant #3 – Jamie Black

I would like to nominate my husband, Jamie Black for the “Smarty Fly Dad” contest.

Without question, the backbone of our family is my husband. His dedication to fatherhood, our marriage and our home is beyond verbal definition. My two daughters ages 10 and 5 say his hugs are their “safe place” and I cannot disagree with that statement. Jamie stays home with our girls so that I can enjoy the career that I love. There are many times when his patience should perceivably run out and miraculously it just doesn’t. While he is clearly outnumbered in our home from a gender perspective (even our cat is a girl), he takes it in stride and can often be found at the other end of a bottle of nail polish. His girls come first and to that there is no exception. It was serendipitous that we crossed paths 16 years ago and for that I will be eternally grateful and more than just a little bit lucky.
