Taken Father’s Day 2009 |
Since this coming Sunday is Father’s Day, I’m reminded of all that my husband has done for our three boys.
- He’s shown interest in their lives every single day.
- He’s attended their ballgames.
- He’s played games of all sorts with them.
- He’s done devotions with them.
- He’s worked through problems with them.
- He’s tried to be a fair and reasonable disciplinarian.
- He’s lifted them up in prayer day after day.
- He’s laughed at their jokes, even when they don’t always laugh at his!
- He’s worked hard to provide for them.
- He’s been proud of them and bragged on them more times than they know.
- He’s taught them how to pray, how to read their Bibles, how to follow God.
- He’s apologized when he was wrong.
- He’s been honest with them when it was difficult.
- He’s worried about them.
- He’s loved them.
Sure, he’s had his messy moments but I’ll leave that to him to share about on his own someday. For right now, I want to simply focus on the good things he’s done in parenting because messy moms and dads have their wonderful, loving moments even amidst the messes of life.
