Happy Birthday Dad!


Happy Birthday to my Daddy! My biscuit eating, retreat going, tractor driving,
rescuer, protector, guide, and most loving Daddy turned forty-six on July 2.. The past few years have been ones of great change in our family and Dad has been such an example in his prayerful leadership. He shows how much he loves us all in so many ways, big and little. We love you so much Dad!

Tractor work with his little boy


And pulling sticky mouse traps off his daughter's feet . . . Dad always rises to the occasion!

Happy belated birthday Scott! You and my brother share the same day, so I'll remember in future years. You are a fine example of what a father should be.

Happy Birthday from the McCs, too, Scott! Wow - you had a bunch all in a row.... wait, that sounds wrong! Didn't mean you got older faster than the rest of us! I meant "a bunch in your family" -- Jeremy, Simon, and the adoptions felt like a birthday, and then yours. Sorry we didn't keep track enough to know that it had come and gone. We're so blessed to know you and the wonderful family that you and Sandy have given your lives to raising. May God bless you all your days.
