A Fathers Day Tribute...

(taken this weekend at the splash park)

Reasons Justin is such a great Dad:

*always leaves the house giving Jackson hugs and kisses, and first thing when he walks through the door he gives him more hugs and kisses.

*knows how to play with Jackson and get him to laugh and laugh. Jackson especially loves to play "ball" with his daddy.

*is always willing to help out with Jackson. Almost every night that he is home in time he gives him a bath and gets him ready for bed.

*days when he can't spend time with Jackson, he loves to hear about things he did. He loves to see (or hear) Jackson learn and grow every day.

*honors and uses his priesthood to bless Jackson

*is almost always the one that takes Jackson during church when he is being disruptive in sacrament

*works hard to preside, provide, and protect his family

*always sees Jackson's potential to learn and helps me come up with ideas to help his development

*loves his son UNCONDITIONALLY!

Reasons why MY Dad is such a great Dad:

*loves his family and children unconditionally. He has frequently expressed his love and how proud he is for his children

*has been a great example of a worthy companion in marriage

*has always taught me the value of hard work

*because he is such a hard worker it sometimes takes convincing to get him to relax and have some fun, but he does know how to and often takes time to just enjoy being with his family

*honors his priesthood and used it often to bless me and my brothers

*a great example of faith in the gospel

*an amazing grandpa! He loves his grandsons so much and it shows in his face when he is with them

*calls on his drive to Jackson during the weekend to check up on me and to chat


I have a great father in law whom I love so much and look up to as well. I hope all the fathers have a great fathers day!
