Mike went to Nicaragua early Wednesday morning and came back home early this morning. He went with my dad and three other men from church. Our church has been doing mission work in Nicaragua for years and these men went down to get a mission project update. There is a farm in Nic that is growing crops. A check up on that progress and growth has been done. Some more info about the feeding program for the children has been gathered. There is potential for this third world country and our church is trying to help with their poverty and spiritual growth!
We missed Mike while he was gone. It just isn't the same without him around! Mothering three children without a husband is not always easy. We were busy though. We hung out with my mom some because dad was gone too. We went to the pool on Friday and enjoyed the sun and water! Fun times!
The kids were so excited about seeing "Daddy" this morning when they woke up. Mike was happy too to see them all but still very tired. I hoped the coffee and warm sticky buns would be enough to wake him up for Sunday School teaching and lunch!
Ashlyn woke up and when she saw Mike she got all smiles and said "dadda". Matthew and Hadassah enjoyed the hugs and kisses and then presented Mike with their father's day gift! "HIS" Chips and Soda!
Mike's special Father's Day lunch today! Brewed tea, nachos with avocado's & a meatball sandwich. Add some water melon and blueberry's and a small helping of mac and cheese! Yum!
Mike is now napping and catching up on some much needed sleep.
Father's Day is a special day for Father's of course! I love this day! It brings sweet memories of my childhood and appreciation of my dad. Thanks dad for loving me and raising me in a God fearing home! What a blessing!
I am so happy to be resting here at home with my little children running around the house, hubby back home safe and sound, and for a day of rest!!!
Happy Father's Day to all the DAD'S!!!
