To My Father(s)
So, I know...I'M A TOTAL SLACKER!!!! I haven't posted in over 2 1/2 months, but a lot has happened in our life since April. We have moved from Jackson MS to Amite LA, Trey has started a new job as Student Minister at FBC Amite, the girls are in a new house and environment, and I'm painting and decorating like crazy....WOW that's just exhausting typing it! But we are so thankful to be in Amite, to be a part of a wonderful church family, and so thankful for God's provision for our family!
It just so happens that today, my first day back to blogging in awhile, is Father's Day! Today is a bittersweet day! I'm so blessed to have such a wonderful Godly husband who is an amazing father to our two beautiful children. He makes me laugh and cry (happy cry) and makes me just feel blessed to be a part of his family each and everyday. Each day he shows Hannah and Noelle (and me) more and more love than the day before. But most importantly he shows them the love of Christ. I pray that one day they find a man to marry just like their daddy....that will make me one happy mommy!!! Thank you babe for the joy you bring me each and everyday when I watch you with Hannah and Noelle; I can tell how much they love you when I watch them with you! You are my best friend, a Godly and loving husband, and an amazing father!!!! I love you so very much!!!!!
So bittersweet you ask??? Well, it's a bittersweet day bc we are able to celebrate and honor Trey as a dad, but we're not able to be with our fathers.
My dad is and has always been a wonderful example of what I should look for in a husband and father to my children. He is a great provider for his family, a loving husband to my mother, and just a great dad! He was always and is still always someone I can talk to at any time day or night and I know that he will provide words of wisdom from his heart! My dad showed me how to strive daily to be a better Christian and follow Christ no matter what's going on around me! Thank you dad for being such a Godly father and a great example to me! You are and will always be one of my best friends....I love you!!!
MOST IMPORTANTLY!!! There is a Father above all others to be thankful for, and that is my Heavenly Father! Thank you Lord for creating me, for loving me even when I've failed you, and for giving me so many blessings in my life. Words cannot express the gratitude for the ultimate sacrifice you made (sending Your one and only Son to die on the cross) so that I may live with You for eternity!!!! May I strive daily to be what you want me to be and to follow you know matter what the cost. And may my life be a true reflection of who you are in me! Thank you for allowing Trey and I the privelage to call ourselves mom and dad to Hannah and Noelle. We know that they are your children and we are just here to raise them according to your Word...so may we strive daily to do just that! Thank you Lord for loving me...I love you so much!!!
