There are certain moments in my life that I know I want to hold on to forever and ever.  Moments that are just really special to me that I hold really close.
One of them is that day when my family drove to Eau Claire to drop me off for the first time, two years ago.  As we were driving, I looked in the rearview mirror from the backseat and saw my dad, who was in the driver's seat, crying.  I had only visibly seen my dad cry one other time in my life and it was from a distance; the other time was on the phone, so this moment was really impactful.  I love my dad... a whole lot.
I see Jesus through him,  and the way he loves me, my sisters, my mom, and other people.  He has taught me so much about loving people.
He is a good man.. the best one I know and I am so thankful for him.. on Father's Day, and every day, too.

    Skipping like a calf loosed from its stall,

    I’m free to love once and for all
    And even when I fall I’ll get back up
    For the joy that overflows my cup 
    Heaven filled me with more than enough
    Broke down my levees and my bluffs
    Let the flood wash me.
