Last year, and three hours into this year,
the fathers in my family underwent some big changes.
My husband Bill received the unexpected news he would become a grandfather.
Here he is about a year later, out to dinner with Ari,
our incredible granddaughter.
My son Dan became a father.
Though young, he is already a loving and devoted father.
My dad transitioned into a new living arrangement. He also became a great-grandfather for the very first time.
Fathers are so very important. It sickens me when TV shows and ads portray men as weak, incompetent or dispensable.
I cannot imagine how our children would have turned out
without their father. How thankful and blessed I am!
Listen to your father, who gave you life.
Proverbs 23:22

Oh how I second the motion. My father is to this day the strongest, most intelligent and wonderful guy that I know. Through his life he survived many hardships without a complaint and he is the jack of all trades. I can't imagine my life without him in it although I know that at age 80 our time is limited.
Lyn, thanks for sharing a great testimony of your dad! Awesome!
Catching up on your blog. :) LOVE THE PICS!!!
I agree about dads. My kids wouldn't be half as amazing without Rob to shepherd them and temper me. Dads are the greatest heroes!
I know I'm only beginning to appreciate my own dad.
