A Day for Dads


Happy Father's Day, J!
We love you so. The kids and I are so lucky to be a part of your family.
And to my own dad. I.Love.You.


Dad & me ~ September 1978



And to my dad's dad. My dear grandfather. What a joy to be part of a family that includes a long line of fantastic fathers. Dads and dads and dads who took care of their families, taught their children to succeed and came home every night to the families who have loved them.

Happy Father's Day!
And thank you for being who you are. Each a unique individual. Each a man worthy of our honor.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evilbut rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."(1 Corinthians 13:4-8a, NIV)

I always say "God had a great plan when he gave children a mother and a father." I also say "It's no accident that children NEED their dads." Yeah, DADS and DADDYS.
