Thank God for Fathers

Thank God for Fathers like this one:

He is patient and loving and works hard all day only to come home and roll up his sleeves to give baths, play with trash trucks, and clean dishes. We're so lucky he's ours.

Thank God for my own father...

...for always providing well for us, and loving us, and taking my children for their first boat rides.

Thank God for Stepfathers...

...for telling us jokes and teaching us about investing and oral hygiene. 

And thank God for the greatest grandfather who ever lived, and the fact that we'll see him in just a few days.

If the story was told, only heaven knows

But his hat seemed to me like an old halo

And though his wings, they were never seen

I thought that he walked on water

Happy father's day!

Preschool Art Gallery

If you have a preschooler, you have many, many pieces of art coming home. Some of them are great and others are...unable to be located after a day or two. I made this to hang in our playroom, so that my children't art can be on display all of the time. Next year I'll have TWO preschoolers, so the art will double!

It was nothing to make. I used string and thumbtacks and clothes pins. You could make a fancier one or buy one like this.

They approve!
