This blog is all about the adventure that God is taking me on as I prepare and then head out to be a missionary in the Czech Republic from May till August.

The Man I love The Most

This blog post is a little different from the rest of mine. This is about the man who has raised me and loved me my whole life. My dad!

It's obvious where we get our good looks from!


Today is his birthday. If you don't know my dad well then your missing out because he is pretty awesome.  He is hard working, loves others, has a heart of a servant, love this God with all his heart. He is great chef... no joke! He can pretty much fix anything the goes wrong with my car. He has a heck of a lot of patience to put with me and my shenanigans. He is a sports fanatic... GO DODGERS! He is about one of the goofiest guys over 50 I know....sorry for spilling your age dad =) He is my dad! I can't be anymore blessed!

Without a doubt this has been a huge year of growth in his life. Those of you who know my family and what this last year has held for us you know it hasn't been easy for any of us. I have never seen anyone handle life's challenges with such grace, humility, a heart of a learner, and so much faith and trust in the Lord like my dad has. I couldn't be happier to have a dad like him. He has been such an amazing example of a Godly man to me and my siblings. I think being out here on the field the thing I might miss the most is being able to daily talk to my about how our day was, what God is teaching us, or even just sitting down and watching TV with him. I love him so much.  There is so much I could say about my dad but my little insignificant words just can't do it justice. So, I'll leave it at this:

I love you dad! If I am luck to find someone half as amazing as you then I'm set. I'm sorry I can't be there to spend your birthday with you! Happy Birthday Dad!!!!!!

Love,

Your Little Girl
