HAPPY Father's Day...

seems to mean so much more now since Glen's been gone.  He was able to fly home for a quick 1-2 day turnaround and it was worth it.  We surprised Micah by telling him his Clifford stuffed animal was hiding in our bed sheets and he wanted to come have breakfast with us.  SURPRISE!  Anna stood amazed for awhile, then was all snuggles.  Blessed beyond measure to have this short time together.

We love you Dad!
