Happy Father's Day Patrick!

Happy Father's Day to my dear, dear husband.  Our boys are so very blessed to have you as their dad.  It has been nine years since Pat starting staying home as a full time dad.  I regularly count my blessings not only because you are my best friend, but because of what a wonderful father you are to our boys. You are a role model in so many ways:  honesty, friendship, love, hardwork and lots and lots of laughter.  Our boys will all grow up to be amazing men and fathers because of you.

Today, we'll head out to the cemetary after church to leave flowers on my dad's grave.  Miss and love you dad, but as Ryan said so many years ago..."I'm sure grandad is relaxing in his big comfy chair in heaven."  My dad always had his favorite chair were me as a little girl and my boys as babies cuddled on his lap.  Thinking you often in your big comfy chair with your laughter that could fill up the room.

The card below is courtesy of Denise in my card club...love the sentiment on this card so very much!  Thank you Denise for bringing this for us to make last week! Perfect!

Wonderful thoughts. My dad's been gone 12 years but every Father's Day I feel his loss the same as if it was just yesterday. Took flowers out this morning. Spent the rest of the day making sure Hubby's dad has gone okay.
