On this 2011 Father's Day, I just wanted to say a few words about my Daddy...
~Thank you for choosing my momma as your spouse 37 years ago. I couldn't imagine my life without the example that both of you have set.
~Thank you for loving Momma in front of me!
~Thank you for all of the time that you spent with us growing up - arranging your work schedule to make it to the ball games, birthday parties, school events, etc. It was noticed!
~Thank you for your generosity in all things - especially handing out the 20's. I can't remember a time that you ever told me no when I wanted something. It may have been delayed, or I may have had to work for it, but you always made sure that I had what I needed and more than likely what I wanted.
~Thank you for the memorable vacations that we took every year - the beach, the mountains, Disney.
~Thank you for spending time on your knees praying for me every day. If that isn't an image of love, I don't know what is.
~Thank you for the rules and the boundaries that you set. Without them I wouldn't be the woman that I am today!
~Thank you for being willing to send me halfway around the world, finding a Godly man to marry, and supporting our decision to live out of state. Thank you for finding time out of your schedule to visit us where ever we have lived.
~Thank you for your unconditional love, which I have never doubted!

It's great to "meet" you.... I've enjoyed reading through some of your recent posts & this one about your Dad is so sweet. You asked a question on my blog about the ice packs.... but your email address isn't showing on your Blogger profile ~ so I'll answer you here: I picked them up at the drug store. I believe it was CVS or Walgreens. They were about $10 each but very worth it. Have a great day!!
