Things To Be Grateful For as a Father

  • A little one that says "I Love You Daddy"
  • Finding a 'love note' on the pillow from a little boy or girl.
  • A child to reminds us about what's most important in life.
  • A wife to gently bring us back down to reality to help us remember that above all, the most important work we do is at home, not at work.
  • Being able to play 'tea party' with a little girl.
  • Having one-on-one discussions with a teen.
  • Developing patience, faith, hope, and charity dealing with children's challenges.
  • Feeling the sweet love of God fill our hearts when we find ourselves pleading on our knees for the welfare of our children.
  • Feeling the promptings of the Holy Ghost as we search for answers to bless our children's lives.
The list goes on and on and on....

  1. Can't tell you the emotions this short post brought up for me. I'm so thankful for the callings and moreover blessings of being a husband and father. I feel so indebted to my Heavenly Father. Thank you for the reminder.
