Happy Father's Day {2011}

I am so, so thankful for my Father, especially right now.

He's out on the fires with little sleep and lots of work to do.

Mom and I are so grateful to him for working so hard to provide for us!

Watching him as he's getting up early, coming home late, and doing it all again

the next day really encourages me to do my part at home.  He's got his job,

and I've got mine!  The least I can do to thank him is to keep up around the house

and make sure everything is in order when he is home.

So to all you Dads out there -

Thank you!

Listen to your father who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old.
