Life is interesting. It's filled with so many marvels, so many mysteries and adventures. Scores of stories can be told from it both glorious and tragic, both joyous and heartbreaking. Like you all my life is filled many of them. Above them all is the role and responsibility of Father. It's the greatest and most amazing role there is. I can and should be the greatest story ever told. You own story of Fatherhood! This is just my own, I hope it helps someone. Kids! Feel my forever love for you!❤️Me

Jesus Loves Me!!!!!
I was time for bed. We had just gotten back from my In-laws. Jasmine was starting to come up with a cold. She laid in her bed and I sat on the floor next to her. She said, "Dad! I need some medicine." I asked her if she thought we should pray and ask Heavenly Father to help her feel better. She said, " Nooooo! I need medicine." I smiled and then told her the story of the 10 sick men who Jesus healed. After I told her the story, I asked her to guess how many of them came back to tell Jesus Thank You. She said, " I don't know Dad." I said, "Only 1........Out of the 10 sick men that Jesus made feel better, Only 1 said Thank You" Then a loud yell came from the other room, "YEAH!!! 9 OF THEM DIDN'T SAY THANK YOU." Shayden, my 7 year old, had been ease dropping on the story. I smiled with pride because of his contribution. Then, while laying on her back in her toddler's bed, " JESUS LOVES ME!!!!" With a hugh smile, and an abundance of warmth, joy, and love in my heart, I said to her with emphasis, " Yes......He.........Does!" She agreed to pray with daddy. She folded her arms, bowed head and listened as I said a simple for prayer for her health and well being. It was a spiritual moment and special one as my children exercised Faith in God.........a very special one. After the prayer she smiled, looked me in the eyes and then asked, "Now can I have some medicine." With a smile on my face I said of course. I love you Jasmine!
