My Daddy and His Sons!

Today, I read a Father's Day card...it said
"Dad, I know you always wanted the best for me."
I have the best! I have YOU!
He taught me so much, and he never met a stranger
Looking at this picture, I think if we said,
"Good catch, Dad!" he would reply,
"Yes, I am!"
(most of the pictures we have of Dad
include fish or his grandchildren)


My 2 younger brothers, Darby & Jim Bob
not only share Dad's love for fishing, but
have his gift for making others feel better,
just being around them.

If a father hears, "He's a chip off the old block!"
it may not always be a compliment...BUT
Dad would be so proud of these 2 good, kind men,
and yes Dad, they are a chip off the old block!

Dad, I have the best....Your love & legacy!
I know God delights in you!

It occured to me...

Sweet Morgandy & PaPa watching T.V.
possibly watching Dora the Explorer
which is random to this post, except
I recall Morgandy repeating Dora,
"NO sniping Sniper!"
"NO sniping Sniper!"
"NO sniping Sniper!"
(Sniper is a little fox that always
causes trouble.)

Yesterday I was going to post on FB,
" I am tired of hearing people gripe
about people who gripe!"

Then it occurred to me that I needed
to stop...stop griping.

O.k. I told myself, start stopping!

Then I felt rushed cooking supper and
heard myself fail time after time.

So, last night I went to bed thinking...
"NO griping Griper!"
"NO griping Griper!"
"NO griping Griper!"

I woke up this morning thinking the same thing,
and I haven't even started the day.

Prayers appreciated!

Happy Birthday, Alex ( part 1)

Hope you keep that spirit of fun.

And continue to learn from others.
(Watching your Dad draw an airplane
at your pre-K valentine party.)

stand up to your fears
( like standing on this lava rock in Hawaii)
(12 yrs old)

and always know how much fun you are,
as you remember the good times.
