Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers out there!! What a wonderful day to be able to celebrate the examples and love they show us.

I want to start by giving my gratitude to the father of my children!! He is the most wonderful man and I am so grateful to be blessed with him as my eternal companion. There have been many ups and downs along our 6 year road and yet he has remained strong and supportive and loving!! He lifts me when I am down and supports me when I am up!! He builds me up daily with his loving words and kind actions. He is a fantastic father, who loves his children and would do anything for them!! They are always so excited when daddy comes home...when they hear the garage door go up, they run through the house like a herd of horses and greet him at the door. He is so giving and so compassionate he is the greatest example they will ever have!! I love you, Aaron and I hope you had a great Father's Day!! You are the light in my life, you are my best friend!! You have always been there for me and taken my good and bad and accepted me as I come. I love you so much and am so grateful for your love and support!!

Next I want to give much deserved gratitude to my father! He has always been such an amazing man in my life, such a great example and such a great friend! He has given so much to me and my family that we could never repay. He gives without asking for anything in return...he supports without any thought of himself! He is absolutely the most wonderful father any girl could ask for. He showed me how a husband should treat a wife and always told us that we were very special and beautiful princesses and we would someday find our prince that would worship the ground we walked on. He taught us how to change a tire, check the oil, fix a sink, and so much more. He is and will always be my safe place and I am so thankful to have such a great relationship with my dad. I know there are a lot of people who are not blessed with this special relationship, and my heart hurts for them because I honestly do not know where I would be without my daddy!! I love you, Dad!!

I want to thank my father in law for raising such a wonderful son! I want to thank him for being a great example for Aaron to follow! He is such a soft spoken and loving man it is no wonder Aaron is so great! He taught him how to do everything!! No need for a plumber, electrician, mechanic or any other kind of handyman because Aaron can do it all!! He is amazing because his dad is amazing! I love you, Russell...Happy Father's Day!!

I finally want to thank my Heavenly Father!! There is so much He has done for me in my life, words cannot express the love and gratitude that is in my heart! I am so blessed and so fortunate to be where I am in my life today. I have been blessed with health, I have been blessed with great families and friends, I have been blessed with the best possible husband, I have been blessed with four beautiful and healthy children. He continues to pour blessing out upon us each and every day. Our garden is growing, our family is healthy and happy, we have such wonderful friends and neighbors....our ward is fantastic!! Our Bishop is amazing in the love he has for every member!! The Lord knows exactly what I need and puts things into place just for me! Our new Relief Society President is my best friend and I know she was called to be at this time because He knew I would need her in this time in my life. He knows each and everyone of us, He loves each and every one of us so much!! He gives us everything and asks for so little in return. He is the perfect example and I am so thankful to have the knowledge I have of Him and the plan He has for His children.

Happy Father's Day!!
