Happy Fathers Day

Our family was not fully able to celebrate "Fathers Day" yet. Dane was asked to be at girls camp this weekend with many of our "ward daughters". Because of this we will be celebrating our daddy next weekend, but to all of those fathers, grandfathers, and futures out there we wish you all a Happy Fathers Day.




FATHERS ARE WONDERFUL


Fathers are wonderful people
too little understood,
And we do not sing their praises
as often as we should...

For, somehow, Father seems to be
the man who pays the bills,
While Mother binds up little hurts
and nurses all our ills...

And Father struggles daily
to live up to "his image"
As protector and provider
and "hero of the scrimmage"...

And perhaps that is the reason
we sometimes get the notion
That Fathers are not subject
to the thing we call emotion,

But if you look inside Dad's heart,
where no one else can see,
You'll find he's sentimental
and as "soft" as he can be...

But he's too busy every day
in the gruelling race of life,
He leaves the sentimental stuff
to his partner and his wife...

But Fathers are just wonderful
in a million different ways,
And they merit loving compliments
and accolades of praise,

For the only reason Dad aspires
to fortune and success
Is to make the family proud of him
and to bring them happiness...

And like Our Heavenly Father,
he's a guardian and a guide,
Someone that we can count on
to be always on our side.
We LOVE our Daddy!
