Happy Father's Day!



First off Happy Father's Day to Budda and Pops! We are so thankful to both of you for being our Father's...although neither of them will read this:)

I am doing a new bible study about being a better wife and one of the exercises it had us do was to read a verse and then list the positive things about our husband...since we so often are quick to list the negative. It really helped me to see how much Mick does for our family and I thought I would share because it might help you do the same. This was Mick's card for Father's Day:

Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable – if there is anything excellent or praiseworthy – dwell on these things.
Philippians 4:8

True- You always tell the truth and think about what would be best for others.

Honor- You uphold honor by always choosing to do what is right, not what is popular, even if it is the harder thing to do.

Just- You seek to be as fair as possible and always weigh the choices at hand carefully.

Pure- You seek to be honest and pure with your students, your family and your friends.

Lovely- You love us and do most things well.

Commendable- You give 150% all of the time to everything that you do.
Excellence- You set an example for your children and your wife that is both godly and excellent.

Thank you to all of you who are father's out there...or those who might not be biological father's but are like that to someone else.
