WHAT MAKES A DAD!



God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,

The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,

The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,

Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it ... Dad.

A good Sunday morning to you, Pusterfuss...((HUGS))...48 here. Did all your fishes make it into their new pond? Are you getting some time in your work shop?

The fish are going in later today. I can't believe it, but I've been too busy to get much shop time. Note to self: time to prioritize....

Morning coffee bump.

Chuck's foot is doing OK. It aches everyonce in awhile below the bit toe but he's doing fine. We have guests coming this week so we're getting the house ready.
