50?! You're old!



Happy birthday to my old man! Dad, you're 50 today. Don't let it get you down. I know, being HALF A CENTURY old is not something to be extremely PROUD of but here are some things you CAN be proud of:
1. Your wonderful wife who has been the best example of christ-like service your children have ever seen... and taught them to do the same.
2. Your Queen "A" Daughter- Amy who is one of the funniest people you know, and loves you.
3. Your Queen "B" Daughter- Ashley who is one of the most talented people you know, married to a good man and has given you a beautiful grandchild with another on the way- who also loves you dearly.
4. Your eldest son- Jacob, who served an honorable mission and is now working hard at his education with every intention of succeeding in his pursuits- who also loves you.
5. Your son- Joseph, who is funny, outgoing and working hard to be a biathalon-er. Who can say that?!
6. Your youngest son- Samuel. We all know he's the favorite child, but he is a good kid learning to be a good man by your example.

Dad, you've been a great example of love, service, sacrifice and work- we all know what a great man you are.
Happy 50th birthday from your loving daughter, son-in-law, grandson and almost-here-grandson.
We wish we could be there celebrating with you!
