Today is Father's Day and our gift to Kelly was being as far away from him as possible. He enjoyed a nice quiet weekend in Amsterdam all alone, and we enjoyed our Georgia friends.
I gave the kids a quiz about Kelly to help me share our love from across the ocean.
Some children answered quickly and easily. Others (one in particular) proved to be quite difficult.
Overall, I just wanted to be sure that this guy knew that he means the world to us and that we would be lost without him. What a blessing it is to get to be with him forever.
