First off, a major Happy Father's Day to my amazing dad! My birth mom tried so hard to sabotage my relationship with him over the years when I was younger. God thankfully opened my eyes to what she did and he has been by my side ever since! He has been there for me through thick and thin despite all we went through when I was a child. I know he loves me unconditionally and is there for me no matter what! I'm so thankful for such a great dad and am thankful he shows my children what a real dad should be like!

Fathers Day
Sunday, June 19, 2011
Today was a pretty nice day overall. I admit there were tears shed because Noah wasn't here to be a part of it all. I know it was hard for Kevin not to be holding one of his sons in his arms especially today on a day that honors fathers.
During church today, our pastor had all the dads stand. Then he had slides of funny statements to eliminate the guys as he was giving away a gift card for some car washes & oil changes. Had to laugh, one of them was "if your wife dressed you today, sit down!" And yes, several guys sat down. lol Another one was "if you don't own a mini van or full size van, sit down." By the time they got through several of these, it was only Kevin & about 3 other guys standing. Then our pastor said the tie breaking question is.........who here standing has the most kids? Well, guess who won?? Yup Kevin!! The pastor said he has 5 kids with 1 on the way. Pretty neat!
The kids were all excited this morning to give Kevin the things they either picked out for him or made. After church, I cooked a big lunch over charcoal (well, some things I made inside as well). I even picked our first zucchini & grilled that along with other veggies, yum!
I'm sharing a video I put together for Kevin from all of us. (Though admittedly, I was hoping to have the baby today, what a great fathers day gift THAT would've been!!)
Thank you Lord,
You’ve always been an example for me
I love you dad!

"My Dad"
by Abel Ullon
To a dear friend I sing today
A friend that taught me God’s ways
He’s always been there for me
And in his loving arms he cared for me
Thank you Lord,
for my dad
Pour your blessings on him today
Thank you Lord,
for his life
My father whom I love so much
You’ve always been an example for me
Reading your Bible and praying every day
Your words will always be my inspiration
And thanks to you, I’ve become who I am
Thank you Lord,
for my dad
Pour your blessings on him today
Thank you Lord,
for his life
My father whom I love so much
I love you dad!
I'm SO thankful for the wonderful dad my kids have!! He goes above and beyond in all that he does for us. Thanks for being a great dad Kevin, I love you!
