Giving Thanks (inspired by)


Thanks be to God, Father, Son and Spirit, for the abundance of good things he pours on His children.
We are but few, but His blessings are many.

our favorite dads

They pick on the girls and play catch with the boys
They wrestle and tickle and add to the noise
Making moms sigh and plead, “tone it down just a tad,”
This is a song for our favorite dads!




 He plays the guitar at the fire and sings
Of young love and dragons and fun-loving things
Cute songs of “too much” that make my mom mad
Oh how we love our Nana Bump Dad!


 He helps them walk planks; pushes children on swings
He builds coops; tree houses; and can fix anything
He throws balls and plays with the dog when he’s sad
Oh how we love our Larry Bump Dad!


See where Marcus gets that trouble-making grin?
Mommy would never put a two year old up THERE!


He works as his little boys watch with wide eyes
He gives whisker burns,  and super-fast scooter rides
He laughs watching kids learn that whiskey tastes bad
Oh how we love our daddy-dad-dad!

In the dark nights, when the storms bring
Cause for feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite dads
and then I don’t feel so bad!
