Father's Day

What is a father to you?

Carter said, "He is a man that works real hard and loves us very much. And he celebrates our birthday and gives us presents."

Chloe said, "He um works in my bedroom and stuff and he works real hard like a man and he loves me and I love him, and um...and that he um picks me up from the bustop...um he lets us swim and he makes us dinner and lunch and breakfast and he also makes us pigs in a blanket for lunch and he tucks us in for bed. And um, he um got the horses saddled up at Memaw's and we get to ride them and we get to ride Chip and all those kind of horses, and he says prayers with us and when he says family prayer he always be's in it, and he always prints pictures out. The princesses for me, and Superheros for Carter and Cars for Mason and Nemo for Mason and Josie for Belle and that's it.

Here is a little poem that Matt received with an M&M tie at church...

Fathers are wonderful people
Too little understood,
And we do not sing their praises
As often as we should...
But Fathers are just wonderful
In a million different ways,
And they merit loving compliments
And accolade of praise,
For the only reason Dad aspires
To fortune and success
Is to make the family proud of him
And to bring them Happiness...
And like our Heavenly Father,
He's a guardian and a guide,
Someone that we can count on
To be always on our side.

Thanks for being a great father and husband! We know you work hard and do so much because you love us. Thanks for being you! We all love you!

Happy Father's Day!
