Father's Day

Daddy and me, 1986

I am blessed to have a father who has always loved and supported me. One that is patient, makes me laugh, and has always shown me how to live life honorably. He taught me to fish, shoot a basketball, and make Mickey Mouse shaped pancakes. Because of this man, I've never had any trouble believing in God as my heavenly father who loves me unconditionally.

I am immeasurably joyful that my little girl will be able to say the same thing. Watching my husband become not just a father, but a beloved Daddy, has been so wonderful. Somehow my imaginings of what a good dad he'd be someday hardly scratched the surface. Emerson is, and will continue to be, so blessed by him.

Happy Father's Day.
