My husband started a new position at Industrial Scientific this year so he had to go on a week training and classes. The scheduled event was on the week of Father's Day so he had to leave on Father's Day. Since we knew he was leaving, we have pre-celebrated this special day a week ahead. We took him out to eat at our favorite Greek restaurant.
My kids are blessed to have such a wonderful Dad. He always make it a priority to attend to their need no matter how hard it is. Sometimes, I think that he spoils our kids but he always justifies it as giving the opportunities that he didn't had as a kid.
"Neither man nor woman is perfect or complete without the other. Thus, no marriage or family, no ward or stake is likely to reach its full potential until husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, men and women work together in unity of purpose, respecting and relying upon each other's strengths." - Sheri L. Dew
"You go through life wondering what is it all about
but at the end of the day it's all about family." - Rod Stewart
"Real fatherhood means love and commitment
and sacrifice and a willingness to share responsibility
and not walking away from one's children. "
- William Bennett
How sweet to have a pre-celebration before he left on Father's Day. Father's Day is such a great day to honor all the good dads out there.
