Father's Day Fun

Father's day has come around again.  I can hardly believe a year has passed.  I can not even remember a time when we were not parents to our amazingly beautiful, sweet, strong willed little girl.  I feel so blessed to be able to watch my husband grow as a Godly father everyday.  He shows so much patience with our little Irelyn when she is throwing fits on the changing table(which she does every single time we change her).  He shows such wisdom when he disciplines her for hitting which she likes to do whenever she does not like what we are doing.  He shows such love when he sings her to sleep at night.  Gavin is the best father to our daughter that I could ever ask for.

We made him a sweet little fathers day poem and put her hand prints on it.  We then proceeded to make him chocolate chip cookies....which are his favorite.  Irelyn enjoyed shoving as many chocolate chips as she could fit in her mouth before I took them away.   Gavin had to work this Father's Day which was a bit of a bummer. We are so blessed to have work and we are finding joy in every season of life. 

We may or may no be waiting patiently for our home studies to arrive.  I have been going over our grant applications to make sure they are ready to send, putting together our immigration application, and praying a lot.  We are so exited but it is also starting to feel more real.  It is getting so close.  Next Father's Day, Gavin will be a father to three of God's children!
