Between us Dean and I have 5 "children": 4 daughters and a son. They are terrific. And the daughters are all married to amazing men ~ ergo today I want to praise them and give them credit for this last week in their lives.
First and most importantly, they are wonderful fathers and uncles!
Secondly, and the reason we are raising a toast to them this morning, is that they have all come through the economic crisis steadily and strongly. This past week has seen
#1 sign a new 5-year contract at the university where he coaches
#2 sign a new contract with a brand new company (for him)
#3 sign a new contract with a new (well established) company just moving to his town
#4 sign a new contract with an international company taking him and Daughter out of the country and doing what they love best - living the gypsy life
As one of them said this week, "it is rough out there" ~ and all four have been in various stages of economic uncertainty. So we are Very Proud of all of them ~ as fathers, as providers, as men with a work ethic, and as guys who are fun to be around, talk with, and watch play with the kids in the family. Blessings to them all ~ and to you
