My Tenderhearted Little Guy
Ryan is so sweet. He cares about how people feel, even at such a young age. If Nathan gets hurt, he give him a hug, or if Nathan is upset, Ryan asks, "Happened, Nathan?" The other day, Ryan was sitting in my lap, and we were watching cartoons. Something sad happened to a little girl on there, and she was crying while she told her friends her sad story. I looked down at his face, and he was watching intently with tears in his eyes. It was funny, but I've never seen someone as young as two be so empathetic! Nathan and Ryan are such blessings! Our family needs the sweetness of Ryan and the enthusiasm of Nathan. The Lord never ceases to amaze me.

Happy Father's Day!!!
My husband is not only a wonderful husband. He is an amazing father. He loves his children, and is bringing them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. He is loving, kind, patient, and wise. No matter how busy he is, he makes time for them....playing with them, teaching and training them, and just being there, to give a hug whenever they need to be held.
I have a hubby who loves me, and is a great leader of our home. I've seen him stay faithful to the Lord, even when circumstances were very hard. Just observing his faithfulness to the Lord encourages me, and I know it will make a difference is our children's lives!
I'm very thankful for my Dad. He's been my Dad since I was five years old, and I've been blessed. He always patiently answered the million questions I've had. When I worked with him at his Texaco station, I saw him tell many people about the Lord. He never hesitated or seemed nervous...it was just an overflow of joy in his heart that had to come out. He always treated my mom with love and kindness, and was a great dad to my brother and me. I don't remember hearing him raise his voice one time. I'll never forget the influence he had on me when I was growing up.
I can't leave out my father-in-law! Before I was married, I heard tons of in-law jokes, but they're so not true! ;) I love being around my in-laws! We always look forward to visits down south, and for one of his Dad's trucks breaking down in Cincinnati. (kidding, kidding! We've enjoyed the visits though!) Anyone who knows him, knows he is crazy about his children and grandchildren. He's the type of person who is very caring, and if you need something, will do everything he can to help you. He's been a blessing to us so many times. We all love him and appreciate him.
