Father’s Day
So, We had a great father’s day.After church we headed over to Jeremiah’s parents home to see his dad. He was painting the outside of the house, which ended up being the high light of our visit for the kids. There was scaffolding up to the second story of the house, and the kids immediately wanted to climb it. So one by one, Jeremiah climbed to the top with the kids. Thank goodness Jeremiah’s mom wasn’t there, she would have had a heart attack! I was a bit terrified myself, but I kept my composure enough to take some pictures of everyone climbing. I now understand why my mom would freak out every time I climbed to the top of my favorite tree in the back yard as a kid. I think , as a mom, it might be better just not to watch at all.
After that we headed to my parents house and had a nice time just hangin out with the family and my sister Abby. It’s always good to catch up on what everyones doing. Then Jeremiah went out with a couple of friends that night.
I thought, since it was Father’s day, that I would say a few words about one of the greatest father’s I know, my husband. It amazes me, that even with the hard job he works everyday, he still comes home with so much grace for me, and is always ready to jump right in and take the kids off my hands without a second thought. He still changes his fare share of diapers, even the stinky ones. I love how he talks and teaches the kids about God in every opportunity he can, and is so patient with them. He provides for our family and for me. The love he has for his Father, and his family is astounding and I am so thankful that God has blessed me and the kids with such an incredible man. I love you Babe.
Yes I have to say You married one of the best men alive!
Beth,
The REAL question that needs be asked concerning the ‘greatest father you know’ is this: Would you have married Jeremiah with his current “hair style”? Remember Beth, he once had such flowing locks…now, well, it’s the chrom dome. I guess love sees beyond all this.
Oh Erik,
I’m surprised that you of all people would be talking about “chrome domes”. Come on now Erik, you’re not to far from being there yourself. But besides that, I think bald is pretty hot. I guess that’s a good thing considering the man I’m married to. By the way, We sent up a little prayer for you the other night, after the terrible loss you suffered. I don’t know how you get up in the morning or even function for that matter. I can’t imagine the humiliation you must be living with. Maybe Kobe can do it next year…..haha
I’m STILL recovering from that nasty Celtic beatdown. Be gentle and sensitive with your comments, I’m in a fragile state of mind.
