Two nights ago, our boys spent the night at Becky's parents house for a 'sleep-over'. Their cousins are in town from St. Louis and so grandpa and grandma had an opportunity to enjoy their grand kids. Our girls have 'teenage' things that they do and so Becky and I spent the evening alone. I love spending time with Becky and we really get a kick out of each other. As I climbed into bed, I felt a slight loneliness for our boys but knew and understood that they were safe and happy.
I am so grateful for the privilege I have to be a husband and father. It brings me joy that cannot be measured. It is easy to feel ungrateful and lose track of the things that are important. Make a special effort to see all that is good and then be grateful.
Life is how you perceive it to be. Even during the tumultuous storms that come, there is much for which we can be grateful.
My family means everything to me. I love to be with them and enjoy what they have to offer me.
