To the Father's in my life!

This is a couple days late, but better late than never!!
I want to wish a Happy Father's Day to the man I love with all my heart. I don't think I could have found a better father for my children.
He always finds time to spend with his boys.
To read to them.
To bake goodies with them.
To play with them outside and in. My boys love their dad very much and who could blame them. He is pretty amazing.
Happy Father's Day to Grandpa Mark. Who did such a wonderful job of raising a fun loving family. Grandpa Mark is not only a wonderful grandfather, but he is also a great father - in - law.
Happy Father's Day to Grandpa Don. We know that we can always count on you when we need you. You work hard for your family and do your best to provide for them in anyway you can. Thank you.

I also want to wish a Happy Father's Day to my Grandpa Steve and Grandpa Doug.

I have found memories of camping with Grandpa Steve and learning to fish with him. I am so glad that my boys have had the opportunity to get to you know and spend time with you.

Grandpa Doug has been gone for 4 1/2 years now. I am proud of the legacy that you have left behind. One of faith and service. I am grateful that you lived long enough to see the birth of my first born. I know that you are in heaven looking down on your family with pride.

I love you all very much and am truly blessed to have had anyone of you in my life.

I also want to wish a Happy Father's Day to all the other men in my life. My Uncles, brothers, church leaders and friends. You have all been wonderful examples in my life and I hope that this past Sunday was made special for all of you.

Book Tag
Instructions:
1. Pick up the nearest book (at least 123 pages).
2. Turn to page 123.
3. Find the 5th sentence
4. Post the 5th sentence and the next 3 on your blog.
5. Tag 3 people.

The book I picked is Go Toward The Light, "I had always told everyone I could manage. But it was getting harder as the boys got older and more active. But it wasn't likely I'd have another boy, was it? Four boys, four straight in a row. Certainly not four hemophiliacs."

I tag anyone who had the time and would like to do it.
