Happy Father's Day


Somehow the wishing of "Happy Father's Day" or even "Happy Mother's Day" always seems to fall on the non-celebrated spouse...whatever the case may be. Ie: Today is Father's Day. A day for all children to honor their fathers. Not for spouses to honor THE person with whom they share offspring. Now...I need to say here that many times Steve has reminded our children to "Remember Your Mother for Mother's Day"...AND had it not been for that gentle reminder(or him actually running to the store to purchase gifts in the name of our children..which by the way is very acceptable) I might not have experienced the HONOR of the day. And visa versa: I have reminded our children to remember their father on HIS special day. Now to all of you out there whose children are younger than ours...there is hope for the future. At some point in their young lives your own children will remember..all by themselves to honor you on YOUR day. I know this because of our wonderful children. They have join the world of being responsible. Yes, they actually remember birthdays and even Father's Day and Mother's Day. Wow...what great kids we have!!!!

You can probably guess what Steve is doing for Father's day... yep. Playing golf with one from our brood. Steve and Stephen are out at Cottonwood right now enjoying the beautiful sunshine and cool, fresh air. Oh wait...it's probably not that cool out today. But don't tell them how hot it will be. Seems golfers don't really pay attention to the temperture. They are just out on a mission to move that little white ball around on some nice green grass. What could possibly be more fun!!!


A shout out now to our Heavenly Father YEAH GOD!!! who blesses us daily beyond belief. Thank you for your son Jesus who died for our sins.I can't imagine watching one of our children suffer and die. Thank you to our Heavenly Father.
