Father's Day

Every Sunday I feel a sense of peace and happiness as I roll out of my bed, plant my feet on the ground and do a big stretch along with a "Thank You Lord for this day".  It's just been a ritual for me, oh, for the past 18 years of my life.

As a nurse you seem to work every schedule imaginable.  Recently I worked nights and found out that being a full-time Zombie wasn't something I wanted to do for the rest of my life.  I switched nights, went to work for an agency, which in essence means I can be off every Sunday.  Children's Sunday School followed by children's sermon today.   I talked to the kids about the importance of following our dad's wisdom and thanking their father's and grandfather's for the wisdom they instill in us.  I then followed it with a reading that my sister in law wrote about her father (my father-in law and pastor).  I'm going to share it below. 

I don't know what else to say that I haven't already said to my hubby.  He's such an amazing person in so many ways.

So, as I'll state below, I'll list the top 10 reasons why I'm thankful for my hubby.

1.  He makes me laugh.  No seriously. He could be a comedian if he wanted to.
2.  He's bionic. 
     He had 2 total hip replacements at the same time and
     by the 3rd week he was walking without any assistive device.

3.  He played in a band.  Bass Guitar. 

4.  He cooks. 

5.  He can draw. He's an artist.

6.  He loves to read.  
7.  He homeschools our kiddos.
8.  He's simple. 
9.  He loves cleanliness.
10.  He loves the Lord just as much as I do. 


Yes, its Father's Day and I get to tell him all these things, but he already knows.  All Dads are special in their own ways. Try to see the goodness in them (even the annoying habits) and thank God for giving us man.
