{ father's day }

What a stressful Father's Day! Marcus and I had to give talks in church today. I hate public speaking. Hate it. I haven't given a talk in 15 years. And to top it off, I had to speak about my dad, which is pretty easy because he's awesome, yet, I get all choked up because he's so special to me. Well, I did it. I didn't go that bad. I didn't hyperventilate, or dry heave, which I was totally expecting. And the best part? It's over! Cindy, my Aunt Janet, Kristin and the girls, my friend Kathy and her 2 kids all came to make me more nervous and watch me make a fool of myself hear me talk. And of course, Marcus did great. He's so calm and can stand up and talk about anything. Did I mention that he wasn't even asked to speak? I totally volunteered him so I didn't have to be up there alone. He's the best.
I'm so blessed to have amazing men in my family. My dad and brothers Jon, and Erik, are honest, funny, and nuturing. My brother in laws Dan and Danny, are amazing dads and are so good to my sisters. My father-in-law is a great example and very caring. Marcus's four brothers are so kind and they rock on the basketball court. And most important, my sweetie. He's an incredible father. I am so grateful for him and all his does for our family.
