FATHER'S DAY

Father's Day at our house is always a wonderful day. The girls get very excited about what they want to get their dad. This year MA made her dad cards for a week. She also made a shirt that says "I Love Daddy". AED Made a shirt that says, "my #1 Dad" They wore their shirts all day on Father's Day so everyone knew they loved their dad. Our favorite movie as a couple right now is FIREPROOF. We actually watched it separately right before Father's Day. AED knows that her dad loved this movie so she bought him the book, LOVE DARE. She had no idea what the book was about, but she bought it anyway. I smiled and let her buy it. She always seems to know what she is doing. We spent the entire day hanging out with Daddy and then we had dinner with my Dad. Mark called his dad on the phone letting him know we would be up to see him in two weeks. When I think of Father's Day, I also think of our heavenly Father. I think about how important He is in my life and how grateful I am to Him that He gave me such a loving father and such a wonderful husband. I think about my husband and all that ever comes to mind is HERO! All firemen are considered heroes, but my fireman is really a hero! He has saved many lives and witnessed others parish. He has stayed right there for those at deaths door and even with that he continues to do his job. He does it with honor and dignity. He has never cared if someone was rich or poor, he always treats people with dignity. I have witnessed his heroic efforts a couple of times and I am always proud and amazed. He is a wonderful man and I am very lucky. When I was single, I prayed for GOD to send me a good man, but instead he sent me a GREAT MAN! He is a loving father that has taken many journeys with me to be a father. We have gone through infertility which is a very humbling process for any couple, but he did it. He has gone through adoption which is also a strenuous and invasive process. He just does it all with heroic strength. I love him and my girls adore him. Thank you LORD for blessing us with a wonderful DADDY!
