happy fathers day {part 2}

happy fathers day to my birth-father alan.  i hope you all have a wonderful day!!! we love you insane amounts!

God took the strength of a mountain
The majesty of a tree
The warmth of a summer sun
The calm of a quiet sea
The generous soul of nature
The comforting arm of night
The wisdom of the ages
The power of the eagle’s flight
The joy of a morning in spring
The faith of a mustard seed
The patience of eternity
The depth of a family need
Then God combined these qualities
When there was nothing more to add
He knew His masterpiece was complete
And so, He called it DAD

happy fathers day {part 1}


this is a day when we can celebrate one of life’s priceless treasures – our fathers. i am fortunate and oh so blessed. i have a father who is an amazing example of what a Christian father should be. Godly Dads are priceless and are a gift from God.

thank you for being my father. i am beyond blessed by being your daughter! thank you for everything you’ve taught me, from putting shingles on a roof to changing my own oil. you wanted to make sure i was able to do it all myself, and i thank you for that!

happy fathers day dad!


Most men will proclaim each his own goodness, But who can find a faithful man? The righteous man walks in his integrity; His children are blessed after him. 
Proverbs 20:6-7

hero’s disguised as husbands

this lucky girl is married to a hero.

he doesn’t wear a cape or leap from buildings. he’s an everyday hero in this house. a hard-working, tenderhearted guy. he takes care of his wife and his littles, normally putting their wants/needs before his own. he will completely stop what he is doing to help someone in need. and he follows God.

that right there is the best kind of hero.

i’m not sure he realizes what a complete hero he is to me, to us. it’s evident to me daily.

so i’m here to let my hero know a few things…

i need him.
i love knowing my husband will step in and defend me or protect me in a moments notice. he would fight for my honor.  inappropriateness, disrespect, oogling…he’ll step in a tend to them all.  


my hero.  sigh.

i lean on him.
i know the world pushes independent women. and they sure aren’t fond of women that aren’t independent whatsoever. i’m totally capable of being that woman but i’m so thankful to have a man i can rely on. if there’s an emergency, i call him. if there’s excitement, i call him. you have no idea how many spiders he has killed over the years, which that alone qualifies him as being my hero. he’s held me while i sobbed over a loss. he’s fixed leaks. he’s calmed me down when i called him freaking out.

he is a true hero. loving me quietly.

i’d be lost without him.
i know this sounds a little over-the-top, but it is true. i would be lost without his loving and protecting arms around me. i would be lost without his voice telling me it will all be okay. i would be lost without his body to snuggle me at night.

a great hero.  an everyday hero.

my hero.
