Over the Hill?...Not Yet!
It's birthday time once again in our house! Dad is now 46, or as he puts it, half way to 92 :) Today was full! We started off with sleeping in...YAY (as much as little ones allow), then fueled up with a mound of pancakes, berries and whip cream. Some "down time" together was in order after that. Then, guys played basketball and we all just enjoyed each other's company. Nathan and Rebecca joined us in the afternoon for a glorious celebration time...steak dinner, homemade ice cream, more basketball, playing at the park, races and lots of laughter all around.
We went around the table at breakfast time in prayer, thanking God for our father/husband and asking the Lord to bless his life. We can't begin to deserve the gift given us...a man of character, loyalty, devotion to God, his family and others. One who puts the needs of others before his own and shows us by daily example what it means to sacrifice. His footsteps are daunting to follow but God is the Giver of grace and with it we hope to carry on the pattern of dedication our father has to the King of kings.
"I love you" doesn't seem enough Dad, but we do and thank you for everything you do for us :) Happy Birthday!!
