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.

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS!

The Lord’s Prayer – Andrea Bocelli

DEAR GOD, who suffered torment, agony,
and death upon the Cross to free our souls
from the chains of iniquity, protect and defend
our troops. Guide them in the performance of
their duties. Strengthen them to endure hard-
ship,danger and deprivation in Your service. Let
their efforts free the people of Iraq and Afghan-
istan from the chains of terror and slavery,
foster a lasting peace in the region, and bring all
to a greater share in Your Mercy.
Amen.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

Eternal Father, Strong to Save

Eternal Father, grant we pray
To all Marines both night and day,
The Courage, Honor, Strength and Skill
Their Land to serve, Thy Law Fulfill.
Be Thou the Shield forevermore
From every peril to the Corps!

Hello Veterans, wherever you are!!

Good Lord's Day to you!

[Brad’s Gramma]

Hi-jacking the thread for a second, please bear with me. This is my first Father’s Day with my Daddy residing in Heaven.

Dad’s? Young and old…love your kids, love them to death. Discipline the little boogers! Unless they’re old and well, hopeless like I was. ;)

Read to them!

LISTEN to them!

Take walks with them!

TEACH them something! Woodworking? Fishing? Hunting? Shooting? Just SOMETHING, spend time to teach them something…and be quiet, let THEM talk….it’s amazing what you’ll learn.

Turn the stupid TV off and go do something with your child!

Eat your meals with your family!

Quietly lead a Godly life so that is ALL they see in their Daddy….they’ll get it, trust me, they’ll get it. They’ll always think of their Godly Father by the way you act as their earthly father. Read that again.

My Daddy was, of course !!!!!!!!, the best. That is a very unbiased opinion, so no need to argue with me. Ha!

I know he can’t read this, I know he can’t see it, but I want to thank him for all he did for me …right till the moment he saw Jesus.

Happy Father’s Day, Daddy!!!

And…this is a song that my nephew put together for his Grandpa’s funeral. He had all of his cousins send him their best memory of Grandpa. He then put it to music.

Taking us for ice cream, wherever it was sold
Behind Grandma’s back, for she would surely scold!

He taught us how to fish – to cast and bait the hook
Digging for worms under coffee grounds – the best place to look.

Coming to baseball games all summer long
Right behind home plate just to cheer me on.

The cottage gave us memories, that we’ll never lose,
Fish fry’s and puppet shows, and a good scare too!

Down in the basement where he made the toys
Boats, Ducks, and marble games for us girls and boys.

The Lord gives, the Lord takes away.

Hope will bring us through the hard times in life.
Hope will guide us through all the pain and strife.
Hope is what God gives, to those who call on Him,
Hope is what we have because – we will see you again!

He would take long walks through the neighborhood
Flash that goofy smile when he was up to no good

Cribbage was the game that he would always win
He would always change the rules, whatever worked out best for him!

A natural in the garden, planting and pulling weeds
The way that he would whistle – will always stay with me…

We were all SOOOOO blessed by that man....

[oldteen]

I will not be answering the door or phone for a day or so

Oh dear! We got us a live one here! [We won't tell anyone tho :)]!
