CELEBRATING DADS

Yesterday was Father's Day.

Obviously the kids and I were going to celebrate my husband, their dad. He's an awesome guy to celebrate!

We had an agenda for the day, part planned by the kids and me and part planned by my husband.

It was looking to be a great day.

But there was a glitch early on that caught our family completely off-guard.

Unexpected. Disappointing. Uncalled for. Completely embarrassing. Incredibly immature.

It could have ruined the whole day, specifically so for my husband.

But guess what?

It didn't.

Despite the fact that it upset our family, especially our son who was a witness to the incident and not happy about it at.all, we decided to chalk it up to, "Some things never change", and moved on with our day.

And you know what?

It was a GREAT DAY!

Church, lunch at one of our favorite restaurants, shopping for the new desk chair my husband had requested for Father's Day, and then an invite to spend the afternoon at my brother and sister-in-law's house with their daughter, son-in-law, grandson, and my parents. We visited. We spent the afternoon swimming in the pool. We had a BBQ.

It was super fun. And when we got home we were tired.

Sometimes life throws you glitches.

Most often they hurt the one who threw them more than they hurt you. Best thing to do is get up, brush it off, and move on with the day.

Which is what we did. And because we did...we got to celebrate some great dads on Father's Day.

Wishing you JOY in the JOurneY.
