A Special Day for Dad

My dad has been a firemen with Shelby County Fire Dept for 33 years. He has been saying for the past few years that it would be his last year. Finally he decided to complete the paperwork earlier this year and go for it. We try to stop by every Sunday after church and see him, when it is his shift since his station is next door to our church. I love that Houston will always have that memory of "Paw's firestation". So, the night he retired, Houston, Tim and I stopped by the fire station one last time to see the truck and his crew. We surprised him with a cake too. His crew and chief had also surprised him with a steak dinner and they got him cake and ice cream. We had so much fun and I am so proud of his heroic career.

Thank you Lord Jesus for keeping my dad safe all of those years he risked his life to help others.
