Happy Father's Day!!!

Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful fathers in my life. I want to wish Ron a special Father's Day! I am so grateful I married such an amazing Daddy. Ron truly cherishes Reese and Nora and loves to make memories with them. I am not exaggerating  when I say that the girls squeal and run to him everyday when Ron gets home from work. He is so good to play with the girls when he gets home from work and help put the girls to bed and then do yard work in the dark. Reese usually has a difficult time going to sleep at night and Ron will lay on her floor and read to her until she falls asleep. Many nights, Ron will fall asleep on Reese's floor. If I ever leave, Ron knows the routine and he knows how to take care of the girls. He knows what they will eat and the bedtime routine. Every night he makes sure the girls have their vitamins and fluoride, he makes sure we have family scripture study, and is great at reading books to the girls. I am so grateful for Ron and the wonderful Father He is. For Father's Day, Ron wanted to to go to one of his favorite restaurants, Tepanyakis. The food was delicious and the girls loved the food being cooked on the Hibachi grill.

I am also very grateful for my Dad and Ron's Dad. They are both amazing men that we can count on.  I am grateful for all the amazing things I have learned from my Dad throughout my life.  Recently, Ron and I were talking about the what kind of parents we will be when Reese or Nora are playing sports and an opponent starts being unsportsmanlike or just plain cheap. I didn't realize until this conversation with Ron that I realized that my Dad never yelled in my games. He would talk to me after about the things that I could have done better on and the things that I did well, but He would never yell or make a scene in my games. Even if he felt like a referee was making a poor call, he would wait until after the game to tell me. He never wanted me to react on the field based on what parents were yelling in the stands. I was just taught to play better. If calls were unfair, just play better. I am grateful for that lesson I learned in my life. There are a lot of things that are unfair in life and it really doesn't do any good to whine and complain, but to just play better. Just be better, live the higher law and keep going. I am grateful for all the things my dad has taught me. He is a great grandpa and I am lucky to have him as my Dad.
