Father’s Day, Lighthouses and Family

Leave a Comment/ 1472/ 0

Today we celebrate Father’s Day in the US and even though my own Daddy is no longer with me it makes me so very thankful for him. He was a strong man who was a great example to all those who came in contact with him. My father in law has also become such an important person in my life. He continually amazes me with his fortitude and inner strength and it is amazing to me that I have been blessed with two fabulous “fathers’ when some folks don’t even have one father that they can look up to. I am blessed!!!! And my own husband, Chris, has proven to be a great father also. Must have been the example set for him by his own dad. Strong and supportive, encouraging and loving, always there for our boys ! I am grateful!!!

Yesterday we made our annual trip to the Marblehead Lighthouse and it was early enough that it was not crowded at all. It was not open to go up into though I have done that before —but we both got some great shots of one of our favorite places. Today we celebrate Father’s Day in Lima with Chris’s dad and brother and sister and her family and it should be a great day! Weather looks like it is going to be perfect and we are going to just enjoy it!!! Hope you all have some special time with your families!

This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

All the Light We Cannot See

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

An Abundance of Katherines
by John Green
Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
