Father's Day

For Father's Day today we took Ron fishing. We had a very nice afternoon. Danielle fished for about 5 minutes and then entertained herself by scooping up snails, minnows, rocks, etc along the water's edge with a container she keeps in the car for just such occasions. Ron caught the first fish of the day, which was only right since he had a brand new pole, but Tyler caught the biggest. We let Ron catch the most fish, too.

Hopefully Ron had a good day. Dads so often get the short end of the stick, but Ron really is our family's unsung hero. I feel incredibly blessed to be sharing this adventure in parenting with him.

And... a special thank you to my father-in-law, who modeled what a good father should be. Our family wouldn't be the same, Ron wouldn't be the kind of dad he is, if you hadn't been the type of loving father you were (are).
