I wrote this for a cupcake contest...I didn't win but ....I wanted to share it.
What is special about my hubby
Jon is the dad of 5 kids, 3 of them, very handicapped. Two are biological and three are adopted from various parts of the world....He works full time as a chaplain and a pastor of a small church. He always has time to give to the kids, nothing comes before them. Right now, he is outside sitting on the swing singing to our son Sam who is blind and non verbal. In a few hours, he is taking the big boys to the movies....this morning he prayed and wept over our daughter Selah who is greatly handicapped because of a near drowning. He gave our other daughter breakfast.... Jon is a giver in every sense of the word! He is amazing and I'm glad he is my husband. I never had a father, but I think having him for a husband and seeing how a father loves has also healed me.......
Jon is a great dad. Today after church he and a friend took the boys back to the river to kayak. It was a wonderful way to spend Father's Day with his boys and I know they will never forget it. I'm blessed to have an unselfish husband who puts his kids needs before his, that is how it has always been. I'm glad my kids have what I didn't have in a father.....

We didn't take any pictures as they were all in a rush to go after church. I was going to post some from last year but I just feel too sad to do that. We take so many pictures and looking through them, I'd forgotten some and they are so sweet they make my heart ache. Today is not a good day for that for me.

Selah seems to be doing ok, she just keeps have a few low oxygen numbers. We are hoping it is just the machine or how she is sitting. Otherwise she has done great.
