The Presence in one's children!

Today is my son, Mark's, 54th birthday!   Can't believe it!  Where did the years go!    I called him this morning to"guilt-trip" him by saying (accurately) that those were the years when the fathers sat in the waiting room and only one person was in there pushing!  It was more than a droll experience!

 
Mark has made me mighty proud over the years!   He continues to find ways to bring me joy and happiness.   I got a real good deal in that hospital room 54 years ago today and I will never stop pushing him (or his brother and sister)!
 
Every time I look into their eyes I am in "thin places".   I sense the presence of God as well as the joy of being a parent.  There is no higher commitment for me!
 
Happy Birthday, Dr. Mark Allen Stacy
