This past weekend we celebrated my father's 60th birthday. My aunt and her family came down from Knoxville and my father was also able to enjoy his celebration day with all of his grandchildren (which is not something that happens often). Watching my dad's face was priceless. You could just see the happiness. Bella and Camille helped him open his presents and I don't think I saw him stop smiling once.
My father is an amazing man. To say he had a rough child/teen hood would be an understatement. His father was almost completely absent and had problems with alcohol. It would've been the easy thing to do to follow in his father's footsteps. Instead, he became a christian, married a wonderful woman and had five children. My dad was and is a wonderful father. I feel so blessed to have him in my life and my children's lives.
Yesterday was his actual birthday and I am so thankful for every year God allows us. So, this blog is dedicated to my wonderful wonderful father. I love you dad.
