I also inherited a super father-in-law. Brian's dad, Mr. Dale, is a powerful handyman, and will tackle any project thrown at him. He passed this on to Brian and I am so glad; there seems to be no shortage of projects around these parts. Mr. Dale is also a servant and goes out of his way to help others. He will give you the shirt from his back if needed. He taught Brian what a godly man says and more importantly does, and I am so thankful Brian had this kind of a dad. He loves my children and will do anything (Literally- ANYTHING) they ask of him, and they've since learned the power in this.
I am so lucky to have been blessed with Brian as my husband. He is an excellent father. He goes so much beyond what I could have ever prayed or asked for. He is such a good helpmate to me. He does more work around our house than I do, and he is one mean cleaner. He irons, washes clothes and dishes, fixes lunches before school, and completes a myriad of other tasks without (hold your breath) ever having to be asked. He looks for ways to serve our family, and I know what a lucky lady I am. He loves our children, and they love to spend time with him. Anna is becoming just like Brian. She is a fierce competitor and loves a challenge. She has inherited his bulldog nature and is as stubborn as the day is long. Jordan, too, is picking up on Brian's traits. He has learned the value of being a gentleman in today's society. He loves to be outdoors like Brian, and wants to make others feel important. More than anything, he is nurturing their spiritual growth. This will have eternal rewards, and I am so grateful my children have a dad like Brian.

Yes, Audra--your dad is an amazing man. I only met him a handful of times, but he certainly impressed me. You are very blessed to have been given such an awesome fatherly example.
And Brian. What a keeper he is! You guys are such a sweet family.
I am so very happy for you.
