Happy Father's Day!

I know I am a couple of days late but I am so grateful to the "fathers" in my life - 3 in particular.

1. Kenny. I am so lucky to be married to such a great man! He is a wonderful companion to raise children with and helps me tremendously. When I got married at the ripe old age of 20, I didn't realize how important that decision would actually be and how much of an impact it would have on my future children's lives. If I would have known then what I know now, I would have snatched him up faster! (But I guess 2 1/2 months after his mission is pretty quick??!!!)
2. My dad. I am so grateful for the sacrifices that he has made in raising 5 children. I know it's not easy. His example and testimony throughout my life has fostered my testimony and helped me become who I am. He is "mr. handyman" and always comes to our aid in fixing stuff for us! Thanks, Dad!
3. Gary, my father-in-law. I couldn't ask for a better father-in-law. Ever since I started dating Kenny at the age of 17, I have loved Gary. He is so witty and makes me laugh and I am glad Kenny inherited his sense of humor!
