Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...
For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. Ecclesiastes 3:1

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the encouraging words. One of my goals with this blog is to be open and honest because I think that too many people are fake in this world and that we need to go back to being our true selves. Know that what you read comes from my heart and means so much to me. Hope you all will enjoy it.
