How incredible is it that the Lord gave us fathers as an earthly picture of Himself... flawed though it may be... He wanted us to understand how much He loves us. For this blessing of fathers - we give thanks.
388. Godly men who have been mentors, teachers, guides, and friends to our family.
390. him, being understanding of "boy stuff" because not that long ago he was one too
391. an evening swim at the pool to enjoy a special Dad's day
392. potty training - finally finished!!!!!
393. beginning the new adventure of swim team for our oldest
394. serving those having trouble - teaching my boys the attitude of a life of service - washing feet
395. a quick trip to a family wedding - Jeremy's granddad getting remarried at 80 something - nothing like an outdoor wedding on a farm
396. summer reading
397. My dad, always willing to help however he can, even though far away.
398. knowing that this time next year there will be another set of toes crawling around the house - a blessing from the Lord.
