:Happy Father's Day:

Yesterday after HattieJo's nap, we set out to take some pictures for the "Father's Day" post! So here we go:

Happy Father's Day Daddy!
Andrew, I am so thankful for what an incredible daddy you are to our little girl! Her face lights up when she sees you and I LOVE that. I LOVE to watch you throw her up in the air, snuggle her, give her kisses, and play with her. You are awesome.
Happy Father's Day Poppa and Grandaddy!
Dads, We are so thankful for you guys. Thank you for how you raised us to love and serve the Lord. We are so thankful for how you love our little girl!
In thinking about Father's Day, I am SO reminded of the heavenly Father's love for us. WOW. The lyrics of this song say it best:
How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure

How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory

Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished

I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
