Happy Father’s Day!
Today we celebrate Father’s… and God has blessed me more than I could have dreamed. My own father is such an emulation of love, truth, belief… and that gave me such a solid place to grow.
Today I want to think about the father of my own children… and take a moment to write out some of the many things I appreciate about my loving Tobias.
You know when you’re dating someone, and you catch a glimpse of how you think they’ll make a great dad? I had no idea how that strapping guitar playing, football tossing with his campers man would continue to melt my heart with his love, trust and belief in our boys.
Thanks to my loving husband, I have never felt alone in raising our boys. He is a team player in every way— often doing more than his share of diapers, hair cuts, mess clean-ups…
He desires that our boys know every day how loved they are by both of us. His strong willingness to lead our boys into the saving knowledge of Jesus is a priority, and those wrestle fests on the floor are the things childhood memories are made of.
My boys have such an authentic role model, and are so loved by their daddy. And I just cannot help but give thanks. Wow, God must love me so much- thank you for the gift of watching Toby be the Dad you created him to be.
