Happy Fathers Day!

I know I have been delinquent with this blog, as well as my other blogs... I am keeping up with new posts on facebook and my pages there. Just not enough hours in the day or energy to follow through if there were more hours. Summer is now upon us, garden is still not totally in but may just go with what is there. The grand daughter graduated, 3.76 GPA from a class of 378. We are all very proud of her. We are actually accomplishing things and you can see it happening. Off the top of my head that is all of the positives I can come up with spur of the moment. 

What are you grateful for?? 

Being a parent is, in my opinion a very difficult thing to do, especially in this day and age. I personally would not like to be growing up right now. It was difficult enough when we were growing up and things were much safer, slower and straight-forward. It is hard enough to just keep up with the changes happening everyday around us, let alone around the world which we are now all privy to. All you can do is try and instill right from wrong, respect for others, a firm belief system and be there when the kids need you. Also, try and make sure the kids are self assured...and they like who they are. God didn't make junk or mistakes. They need to know they are accepted for who they are, and you are proud of them. That much goes a long way. We don't often get do-overs, so make the best of each day not only with your family but with yourself as well.  

Peace be with you.
