to the two Amazing Fathers in my life!
My dad is amazing. He is 90 years old, blind, and still an influence in my life.
There aren't too many days that I don't talk to him.
He is always teaching me and inspiring to me be a better person.
Here he is with the 13 living children.
He has raised 14 good kids.
He has 86 grandchildren
and 149 great grandchildren with 15 on the way.
He couldn't be prouder!
He couldn't be prouder!
He keeps track of all his family and he has a great love for them all.
He wants everyone together in Heaven.
His theme is:
No empty Chairs.
What a goal to strive for. What a blessing that we can be together as a family forever.
We just need to make good choices and keep the commandments.
This cute man is the father of my darling children.
What a blessing in my life he is.
He truly loves his children.... and me.
He loves his kids and loves to support them in their endeavors.
We are so blessed that we can be an eternal family.
One happy daddy with his kiddies...
We are so blessed that we have fun together.
Mike & Katie loving life.
The boys on some of their many adventures.
"A father is someone you look up to, no matter how tall you are."
"First, fathers, listen to your sons—really listen to them. . . . A one-on-one relationship should be a routine part of your stewardship with your sons. . . .“Second, pray with and for your sons. Give them priesthood blessings. . . . One-on-one prayer and the sharing of testimonies can draw you closer to each other as well as closer to the Lord. . . .“Third, dare to have the ‘big talks’ with your sons. . . . Your boys need your counsel, guidance, and input on these subjects. As you talk about these very important matters, you will find that the trust between you will flourish....”
...There is no other relationship quite like that which can and should exist between a boy and his dad. It can be one of the most nurturing, joyful relationships in life, one that can have a profound impact on who boys become and also on who dads become."
