***********
All three of our daughters posted photos of themselves with their Daddy on Facebook for Father’s Day.
I thought I’d share the ones they chose here.
We had a great Father’s Day.
The hubs preached a great message at church this morning about being a godly man and father.
After church we went over to our oldest daughter’s, (the only one who currently lives nearby),
for a delicious barbecue.
Three year old granddaughter showed us that she has mastered the somersault.
Youngest granddaughter was sportin’ pigtails.
Me, I’m sportin’ a big smile and my heart is full of gratitude for this abundant life God has given.

I’ve taken the Joy Dare.
I’m counting one thousand thanks in one year.
I hunt for thanksgiving using the prompts Ann gives us each month.

I continue to count my thanks
piling up gratitude day by day
in my little black journal…
