Daddy fun


While I was in here typing away about the Mother/Daughter banquet, Jay had the girls outside.
I looked out and saw that he had one of them on the riding lawn mower and I went out to snap a few pictures.
When I was Rebecca's age, maybe a bit older, my dad would take me out on the riding lawn mower and I thought it was fun~ until those nasty boys next door made fun of me. Of course, he did take me up and down the street instead of staying in the yard so I guess they had reason to think it was weird. But I tried not to let them suck out all the joy I had with my dad. Now that he has been gone for 13 years, it's nice to have sweet little memories like those that I can think back on.
My girls are blessed beyond measure and they don't even realize it.
I love making memories with my family. It's the greatest joy I have outside of my salvation. Maybe that's why I take so many pictures...

*Oh, the girl in the picture above with Rebecca is on of our neighbors' granddaughter of sorts. One of those complicated family things.

In His Precious Name,
