Father's Day

Happy Belated Father's Day.  This is a time that most fathers relax and enjoy..................not so much pastors.  I mean, they may enjoy, but they don't get a lot of relaxing.  There is still the sermon to prepare and the delivery and many times hospitals or nursing homes to visit.

Our son and daughter-in-law were able to come for a couple of days and visit with us for an early Father's Day.  We really enjoyed their visit since we don't get to see them often.

Our daughter and son-in-law had been at the beach for a week.  They stopped by our house Saturday night and left both children (our grandkids).  They got to spend the night with Mimi and Granddaddy and go to church with us this morning.  Since they rarely get to go to our church, we always enjoy sharing them with our church family when they do get to go.

Roger DID preach this morning and was a little tired from the grandkids......BUT he enjoyed it.  We did not have church services Sunday night, so we got to enjoy the grandkids all day.  Mom and Dad (our daughter and son-in-law) joined us for the evening meal and we were able to spend some time with them also.

This was a rare holiday when.....no one was in the hospital; no one died and we did not have to be any place extra, so although an 18 month old and a 4 month old wears you out, we enjoyed the weekend.

My husband, like all pastors.... rarely gets to sit back and relax............glad he was able to enjoy this weekend and hope your husband was able to enjoy and relax also.  They are human......it is sooooooo important for them to slow down sometimes.
