Happy Father's Day!

Summer is my favorite season for so many reasons: warm (HOT) temps, family vacations, NO SCHOOL, my birthday, and of course Mother's Day and Father's Day!
I have had the privilege of having some of the greatest dads ever in my life. I'll start with my grandfathers: Papa and Papaw.

This is my Papa. He is my mom's dad and has always held a very active role in my life. He is a hard worker, a great provider for his family, and a Godly man. He loves us all well!

This is my Papaw. Somedays it is still hard to believe he is gone. He was always active in my life also. Unlike Papa, we didn't go to church together, or even believe the same  (religion), but we respected the differences and I always knew that he loved me. They say that hindsight is 20/20 and  there are so many things I wish I had asked him. So many stories I wish had been told. He was a man of his word. I miss him a lot, but I am thankful for the time I got to spend with him. I regret not seeing him more but I can't change that now. He was a good father and grandfather.

Next is my dad. He is pretty special to me. He is a great spiritual leader. I love sitting in his Sunday School class and learning from him. He has been a wonderful example for my kids also. They love Pop as much as I do!


And last but not least is my Carl. God love him, he works hard for us. When we first got married we agreed that when we had kids, I would stay home. Honestly, that was all I really wanted to do...be a mom(the best one I could be). We knew it wouldn't be the easy making it on one income but we have always done it. This is a heavy burden for him to bear but he keeps on going, always thinking of us first. He has definitely changed his share of diapers, brushed and braided the girls hair many times, and played with the kids for hours upon end. He is patient (more than me!), loving, and a great example for the kids. We love him bunches!! 

Happy Father's Day!!

Much Love,
Beth

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
