A thankful Father's Day.
"Here's to a few more Father's Days," my dad toasted at dinner. I tried to hold back the tears hoping it was true.
For obvious reasons, I truly cherished this Father's Day. It was the simple moments like him laughing at my cards, or all of us eating take-out from his favorite restaurant, or watching him get up from the recliner and shake his booty dancing into the kitchen with the most energy I've seen him have in a week. His energy levels have been pretty low since starting the chemo, but it was such a blessing to see God give him enough energy to enjoy Father's Day.
Here's some pictures from the day from my iPhone! Don't forget to check out his blog that my mom keeps up with as God teaches us to have hope each step of my dad's journey.
A handful of all the cards everyone has so graciously sent him! It's amazing how he continues to get a dozen new cards in the mail each day! Thank you to everyone who has gone out of your way to encourage him with your prayers!

I had a similar Father's Day last year, one of the most special we had ever had. We are blessed to have many more ahead of us, just like I know you will :-)
