To my dad on Father's Day

dad

In honor of Father's Day, I thought I'd let you all get to know my father a little bit.  I'm so thankful to have such a great example in my dad.  Here are a few traits and qualities that come to mind when I think of my dad.

  • Generous
  • Humble
  • Peacemaker
  • Hard-working
  • Giving
  • Self-Controlled
  • Fun
  • Quiet Strength
  • Long-Suffering
  • Patient

After 39 years of marriage, he still makes sure we all know how much he loves my mom.

There was a loud noise (early) the other morning and I came upstairs and he was full-on playing Star Wars Light Saber battle with Benaiah.

When I was a kid,  I couldn't go to sleep unless he said, "Sweet Dreams."  Now I'm almost 35 and he still says it.  And, I sleep like a baby.

Every phone coversation ends the same way... "I love you."

 

I love you too Dad.  Happy Father's Day.
