You may have seen this in his birthday tribute yesterday… but if there’s one thing my Mister qualifies for is a Beautiful Eyes theme.
Of course, if they had a Man Who Wears Socks With Sandals theme, he’d fit that too. Just sayin… ;)
Did I ever tell you?
That the first time I ever saw this man… he was dressed in a blue jumpsuit, welding mask in hand, soot covering his face?
And when I saw those blue/green/grey peepers looking at me with a slight grin…
…well, all the words fell out of my head.
Fifteen years later:
The clouds and the harbor reflected in his eyes – and something more. I didn’t change a single lick of color in this picture. I’m not smart enough to mess with saturation or levels. There’s just no way to create that expression that I’m lucky enough to see every morning.
And it still makes the words fall out of my head.

Love this post! There's something about a man covered with dirt...

He does have fantastic eyes. Great shot!
Such a beautiful post... the words and the eyes - lovely :)
Gotta love a manly man. He does have beautiful eyes I must agree. My baby also has amazing blue eyes. And I also love seeing him covered in welding soot and all geared up to bend metal to his will.
Love this Rachel, and even more love the sentiments attached.
xo
I like this! Original
How wonderful it must be to see yourself through the eyes of someone who loves you so much. And to be loved that wholly and deeply... ahh Mr. Daddy, you are fortunate indeed. Beautiful capture of a beautiful love, Rach....
I told ya yesterday he had beautiful eyes and I stick with that. I can totally see why the words would fall out of your head when he looks at you..
Your words are just as beautiful as his eyes. Great capture.
Sorry Rachel, I looked carefully. They don't do a thing for me.
But I am sure I'd be speechless if I woke up to find them staring at me...

:) love this post too. and I agree with mom of 12...there is something about a man covered with dirt. ;)
And what a SWEETHEART he is! :D I LOVE this photo of him! It's a tie for first between this one and the one of him shooting. But that's just me. ;) LOL
he does have great eyes!
The Allenspark comment was hilarious! This picture made me go "awe." I took a picture of my husband this summer and have it in my newest post when he's in the pool looking up. Our guys are very similar I think. Manly men. Love it. And by the way ... awesome photo -- and right out of the camera too! Geez, way to mess it up for the rest of us! :-) Mary
He has such amazing and engaging eyes!
What a beautiful way to describe your feelings!
Awe....You're right, he does have beautiful eyes!!
Great shot Rachel. And I am even more impressed that you didn't edit it at all. As always your words are the perfect fit for the picture.
Great shot-he does have beautiful eyes! My husband has eyes that hit me like that too--smokey gray sometimes, mossy green sometimes, and blue others.
wow... love the color of his eyes! my hubs eyes change colors from green to blue to grey. love it!
this is beautiful.
Now that would be a first impression :) He does have great eyes. I posted a picture for this too- just on my photography blog since I already posted today
I don't know if I've ever seen a pic of Mr Daddy before, thanks for sharing. Very nice eyes, very nice post. I always check out men in work clothes. Dirty work boots. Rough hands. That's a MAN!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! I love that out of all of the many pictures, I am sure, you picked your man!!! Oh, and yes.... pretty beautiful eyes!
BIG HUGS!!!!
Love this picture, beautiful shot. Love that we can "hear" your love for him and see his for you.
It is a great pics showing off his great eyes! Eyes are the first thing I notice in a person too! :)
With eyes like the sea, after a storm....
This made me cry a little.
He is so handsome!
You know what I really love about your entry? It's unique. Don't get me wrong, I love all the precious babies, but I love that you used an adult whose eyes are deep and beautiful. What an awesome shot and great post!
More than the eyes themselves, it's the twinkle and the life in them.... :)
His eyes look a lot like Josiah's! God must give those eyes only to VERY special guys! :)
beautiful.
your words.
his eyes.
wonderful entry!
Wonderful picture!
He wears socks with sandals?!?!?!? I broke mine of that habit, like, 13 years ago! Mr Daddy and I need to have a little chat!
