The Father of My Grandson


This is a very old picture of my son-in-law who is moving his 6 month pregnant wife and all of the stuff two people can collect over the course of almost three years of marriage on Tuesday. We are now home from a wonderful weekend in Tulsa and I have been sitting and reflecting on the wonderful home he and Erin have made and will carryon at a new home. So here are my favorite charecteristics:
He is very strong--- able to lift refrigerators on his own
He is very generous --- always giving giving and giving
He is very smart --- I LOVE my spreadsheet!
He is very family-oriented --- genuinely loves having all of us (and there are a lot of us!) around
He is very dedicated to his wife --- always checking her emotional and physical pulsepoint
So I guess this adds up to a very wonderful amazingly wonderful man! Thank goodness he is married to my daughter because we love him dearly.

This is one of the kindest things I have ever experienced. I'm thankful everyday that I have Erin and all that comes with her.
My entire life is so much better than I ever knew it could be, and only because of you and your family.

Your Erin is a deserving young woman to have Tim. I only hope my daughter can find a quality man too....in let's say...10 years?
Best wishes with the baby!
