Father's Day

Today I have especially been reflecting on how great a dad Daniel was to Josiah and Kezia. Even though Kezia wasn't even a year by the time Daniel's cancer became debilitating, they both were so blessed to have his loving example and care in their young lives. I know I was so blessed to have him help me so much with them, whether it was the middle of the night for feeds or taking them to the park so I could have some rest -- after he worked all day.

Daniel was a selfless man; no, not perfect, but in complete reliance on God's grace and mercy he reflected how God is our Heavenly Father so well to our kids. He leaves such a big hole in so many ways, and by God's mercy and comfort we continue on. We miss him so much, yet we also have so much to be thankful for for the man God made Daniel and the wonderful time He gave us together.
