Happy Father's Day

Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him father!  ~Lydia M. Child, Philothea: A Romance, 1836


In addition to my Dad, I have been "fathered" by some wonderful men in my life.  I'd like to thank all of them today, for all the times they parented me, when I needed most their guidance and love, understanding and support.

Thank you Dad.
Thank you Husband.
Thank you Duncle Dody.
Thank you Father Joe.
Thank you Senator.
and Thank you to The Wizard, my surgeon.

Father! - to God himself we cannot give a holier name.  ~William Wordsworth


and to my Heavenly Father,

Thank you for Your guiding hand on my shoulder, and all the ways You continue to bless my life, open my heart and forgive me when I get it all wrong.

Happy Father's Day.

Kiss a Dad today.
