I was up a lot with Logan last night. As I was rocking him and trying to be grateful for the opportunity to be a parent, I thought about my Dad. His example is something I often look back to for strength. I was frustrated for the lack of sleep I've been getting and then the thought of my Dad's sacrifices for us came to my mind. Did you know he worked a job he hated, came home for a quick dinner and went to college at night.....for years!? He also studied and tested to become a police officer on his lunch breaks... for years! He always had time for me and never made me feel like an inconvenience. My Dad is quick to listen and slow to speak. I know how much he loves us and loves the Savior. He is a faithful son, devoted father and adoring husband. It also happens to be his birthday today..... HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!

Kye, I love this post! You have truly inspired me to update my blog ... I was "talking" about how I would like to focus more on my blog than on FB and I think that was the little motivation I needed ...
I love the heading of your blog, it's perfect!
And, more than anything, I love our dad. I can remember one night when you were a baby and extremely sick, dad was up rocking you. The lights were down low and he was humming a song to you. You seemed so tiny in his big arms, as he held you and soothed you. We have an amazing dad - happy birthday daddy-o!
