HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Happy Birthday John!

As I was trying to think about how to post about his birthday and what pics to try to find of him, the thought of "what an amazing daddy he is" kept coming to mind.

so I set out to find some of my favorite pics of him being the wonderful, self-less daddy he is.

Oct. '03 -holding Andrew before we leave the hospital to go home

March '05 -holding Rebecca not more than an hour after her birth (still in his operating room scrubs!)

B.E. -before Elizabeth :)
daddy doing one of his most favorite things in the world -boating with his 2 blessings and our wonderful pup Lucy.


Nov. 8th, '07 -one of the first times Elizabeth allowed daddy to hold her for an extended period of time




Elizabeth and daddy bonding..and Elizabeth doing what she did best in China-pointing to things and getting excited!


Father's Day '08



this pic, taken last week, is one of my all-time fav's of John and the kids.
he's doing what they love best -spending time with them.


Happy Birthday honey.
without sounding too sappy ~you are such a blessing to our family.
you work hard to provide for us
you love our kids and they KNOW IT without a shadow of a doubt
you love me in spite of my shortcomings
and most importantly-
you love the Lord with all of your heart and look to Him first ALWAYS, as you lead our family.

Happy Birthday John/daddy.
We ALL love you so much. :)

Just like Shana said, I haven't met John either, and you've got me tearing up. Happy Birthday, John! (Hopefully we can all meet at a "holiday reception" one of these days. *wink*)

Happy b-day to John. Yes - you ad the kids are blessed to have a husband and Daddy that loves the Lord and wants to follow strong after him. I am so thankful to have a brother-in-law like that and I often think how neat it is that our husbands/families get along so well.

Did he get his free Joe's bbq birthday meal?
