Happy Father's Day, Bro!








My little brother received the ultimate Father's Day gift this morning just after midnight. He and his wife welcomed their first child--a little girl named Samantha Jay--into the world and into our family. She is a tiny little peanut--just 6 pounds--with unruly light brown hair and bright eyes. And she is truly a miracle. My kids are nearly 6 and 4 now, and you soon forget how very tiny and fresh and new they are when they are first born. To see my brother's look of pride and protection for his little girl, and to see him embrace this new role, was amazing. Now, my daughter is more convinced than ever that we need another little baby in our family, so I guess we shall see..........So today, I am thankful for my Dad and father-in-law and husband and grandfathers, and for the awesome miracle of new life that God has blessed our family with today.
