Father's Day is this Sunday and that will be our first day in Disney World. So i saw it fit to pay a little tribute to my dad and Jason before I left!
So Happy Father's Day dad! Thank you for the wonderful example of Christ you were and are in my life. I remember growing up people asking me if we sat around the dinner table and you read the Bible to us. As if because you were a pastor we were not allowed to do anything other than talk about Christ. But i want to say thank you for letting your independent daughter fly free. Thank you for letting me choose Christ on my own, but for guarding and shepherding my heart toward him all the time. Thank you for your constant presence in my life growing up. Thank you for always providing for me (yes, even through college), and thank you for always seeing worth in who God made me to be! Thank you for being a great example of Christ. And i don't say that lightly. It's because of your example in my life I can look to Christ -- my heavenly Father -- and know he loves me through it all. I am lucky! Love you dad!!
And Happy Father's day to the most amazing man i'll ever do life with! Jason you are an amazing father. I have so many friends who talk about their husbands in a light, well...less than flattering. But i want you to know i sing praises of who you are and what you do for our family! You are incredibly un-selfish. Always putting us first in your time! We live a very crazy life to the outsiders, but inside you help run a very stable, loving, and fun home! Thank you!
Thank you for being the spiritual leader in our home. Thanks for calling me out on attitudes, and leading the way for our family to grow together through Christ. Thanks for sharing with Judah and Jocelyn what it means to be a true Father, so that one day when they hear and accept Christ, they'll have a great example of an earthly Father.
I love you Jason! The picture of you holding Judah for the first time and realizing you are a father is forever etched in my mind. So young, innocent, yet you would fight the world for him. Precious.
Happy Fathers Day!!
