Happy Father's Day.................

Dear Lord God..............
You are the one who knows how absolutely special fathers are.
You made them that way.
How else can a man work so hard, give so much, and love unconditionally,without your strength?
So first, Lord, thank You for fathers, for daddies.For big, strong men with tender hearts,with hands that are calloused and rough,
yet so soft and gentle when hearts need mending.
Lord, help children to delight this day in being with their dads,
even if it must be only by phone.
May the precious memories flow, and bring laughter,
and new love and appreciation.
Lord, please take care of our dads.Though they are brave and protective,they must also be frightened sometimes,when money runs low, when we need things, when we're hurt or sick.
Lord, when their hearts break because they can't do it all,please help us to let them know how much we love them.
And how much You love them.
Lord, forgive the men who know they are not good fathers,and help them to know when and if they can make things better,with Your help.
And Oh, Lord, for those Dads who keep trying and keep loving after messing up so many times,help their children to love them even more in return.
Lord, for that Dad who has lost a child, please let him know You are there,right beside him,for nothing else can heal a heart so torn.
For the father who is parenting alone, strengthen him with your love.
For those whose father is already with You,
Give him a hug, Lord,
and tell him it's from his children.
And you, too, Lord.
Happy Father's Day!
In Jesus' name,
Amen.

I miss you daddy!

Love, muffit




Happy Father's Day Sweetheart! You are a Wonderful daddy!
I love you!!!!

It has been a tearful, beautiful and blessed father's Day. Reading your blog made it even more so. My dad is in the beginning stages of Alzheimer's and Chris' Dad is bedridden now an dbarely speaks and this might be the last one we have with either of them and that makes it even more special. I hope you are peaceful and reflect on the great memories with your dad today and God Bless You!
