We took a big step yesterday. We celebrated Father’s Day by going to church. Always a good place to start out a Sunday. And to top it off, it was dinner on the grounds day. Lots of good grub.
Early in the service I got a Happy Father’s Day text from Nathan. He found a meme of a guy doing a rather interesting dance. I asked how he found one of me dancing. Without missing a beat he replied, “We have plenty of footage we can use.” What can I say? I’m popular.
After a text from April, one came in from Cailyn. Hers was quite entertaining as well:
“HAPPEEE FATHER’s DAY!! i hope you have a great day daddad. love you lots!”
Sweet, right? It was followed in rapid succession with this:
“-your favorite.”
Gotta love that girl.
Kel and his gang came by after church. Kel gave me some kind of miracle supplement that will guarantee to get rid of all my aches and pains. There was also a book entitled: “There are Dads Way Worse Than You: Unimpeachable Evidence of your Excellence as a Father.”
There you go.
Josh and Nathan both called and wished me well. As always, it was great to hear about their day. Especially since they are both fathers. Josh’s boys convinced him that they needed him for a basketball game (read between the lines here, “You have the keys to the gym, Dad.”). Nathan and his girls are spending every spare moment engrossed in World Cup Soccer.
Chris took a long nap after her church outing. We spent the evening relaxing. Watching TV and working on the latest jigsaw puzzle (it’s pretty much finished).
Today is Chris’ last “free day.” Tomorrow is the follow-up appointment with the surgeon. The next day she has a CT scan on her lungs to check out that nodules. Then comes physical therapy. Then her sleep doc. Quite a week ahead.
Psalms 103:13 says, As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him.
Father, thanks for my boys. I love them. I know you do, too. Amen.
