Diamonds are not just best friends... so are our Dad's.

Today brings a lot of emotion.  Kent and I went to church together and were able to sit in church thanks to some friends that did kidzone for me.  Kent sat for most of the service and was able to enjoy it for the most part beside him being a little on the cold side and his stomach being off.  He was glad so many people were there telling him that they were praying for him.  My dad said a little update on Kent and thanked all those around us who have truely been a blessing,  We second that.  We are just amazed and humbled by all those who love us.  We want to say a big thank you to ALL of you that have prayed , worked or showed us your care and concern in any way.

Dad Breen-- How can we say thank you for the many days you sat in Doctors appointments, arranged lend-a-hand nights at our house, prayed for us, took us places and just talked to us, just checked in with us because you cared , took Lydia places, helped me with kidzone projects and so much more.   We are so proud to have you as our dad.  We Love you so very much and are so blessed to have you as a dad!

Dad DeYoung-- Dad, you show us each day through your smile how much you love us.  You are a blessing.  You have showed us so much how to be a great example to many.  Your faith is contagious, your prayers have always been an encouragement to us.  We are so greatful that we get to spend each Tuesday and Thursday with you as you wait for your ride to go to "school."  We Love You! ( for those who don't know Dad DY has alzhiemers and is very special to all three of us.)

Today we were able to go to my mom and dad's. We had a great dinner and Kent even ate a lot for lunch.  We will have Kent's parents over for strawberry shortcake this evening to spend some time with his dad. 

Our dad's are our best friend's. Diamonds are nice, but Dad's are better! We love both of you.!

Ps-- I said a few extra prayers for a few dad's that are no longer here and are celebrating in Heaven.  Those of you in our immediate family that have lost dad's-- those prayers are for you!  

Happy Father's Day!
