It's my day to post for ScrapTownLady, and I thought I'd take a few minutes to honor the father's out there! I never knew my 'real' father, but was blessed to have been raised by a wonderful 'dad', then welcomed and loved by an amazing father-in-law. I married my best friend, over 40 years ago, and he has been the best father ever. So, today's post is dedicated to father's everywhere!

ReplyDeleteYou always wow me when you do a 3D project! This is amazing, PJ. I am rather emotional this week myself, wishing that my brother and dad could be with us to celebrate the next generation being born. Plus, I have a new dad to honor on this special day! I am headed back for another week of cuddles.

W-O-W! What a fabulous project Patti!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, this is gorgeous! Well done!
ReplyDeleteAw, this one's sweet, Mom. It made me tear up a little, thinking about both grandpas and Dad. Dad's (and your!) love and the principals you guys raised us with really are a guiding light.
