To the Fathers in my Life

Tomorrow is Father's Day and all week I have been thinking about the fathers in my life! I am married to the best Dad in the whole world! Dave loves spending time with his children and now grandchildren and is an amazing Dad who loves nothing better than spending time with the family. Today he went over and babysat Aidan while Jamie and Megan played softball and I had an appointment! Way to Go Honey!


This morning we also called my Dad since I knew that tomorrow we would be celebrating Father's Day at Jamie and Megan's house. Opa to the kids, and now 'Opa the Great' to Aidan, he is so proud of everyone and quick to tell others about the Gang!

Tomorrow will also be Jamie's first Father's Day as a Dad, and what a great Dad he is! As you can see from this picture, Aidan loves spending time with Jamie, and they have lots of fun together. It's fun to be at this stage of my life, watching my son father his own son, and wonder at this amazing thing called family!

And here is the Father-to-be in our family! I love this picture of Darin and Jody and their little one. With Jody now at 37 weeks, Darin will soon be holding his baby in his arms and I have no doubt that he too will make an awesome Dad!

Lastly I have been thinking a lot this week about the Father we miss. It's been three years since Dave's Dad went home to be with the Jesus he loved, and I wonder what he thinks as he looks down at his grandchildren having babies. How he would have loved to hold these little ones....thanks for praying for all of us Dad!
