More Daddy Time

I will always remember a finding from a study that Buck (Rob's Dad) mentioned in a sermon once: that children's grades went up when they played with their fathers. Interesting, huh? I know how special the times were that I had with my Dad--notably our time in Indian Princesses when we'd camp and do fun outdoor things. Time with both parents is special and essential, but I think it's easier for working Dads to lose out on great time with their kids. It's just hard!

Like most dads, Rob has a job that keeps him busy. Youth ministers have weird hours, sometimes in a good way, sometimes not. But whenever Rob has a chance to spend time with Saw, he makes the most of it!

Here's a new tradition we're starting in the mornings. I like to start the day by reading the Bible, so we're kind of instilling that to Saw, reading to him from the Bible storybook my Mom gave him. Today I met Rob after work and we had some fun indoor time since it was wet out. He even shelled out for the carousel! Saw loved it.
So did Rob. :)
And what's an afternoon at the mall in Texas without a fire?
I think I've already mentioned it this week, but I'm thankful for having such a great husband who is also a great Daddy!
