Missing Dad

So every-time your dad comes on skype your face lights up.  I know it has only been a few days but I think you really miss him.  And as for me... while I have spent the last hour searching the house because something was beeping, stupid smoke detector in the basement.  Your daddy would have been able to figure it out and fix it faster. Dad's are great for things like that.  They can fix anything. They know what to say when you have a bully, or a boo boo or a real horrible terrible no good really bad dream.  Dad's are special.  
When I worry, your dad is calm.  When I am stressed he finds a way to help more.  When I talk he acts.  Your dad is a special guy.  He has the wisdom to know if he lets you fall, you will learn, the strength to pick you up off the ground, the compassion to wipe away the tears, and the ability to make you laugh and forget the fall. 
Right now dad is your hero, but as life goes on I am sure there will be moments when you think he knows everything and moments when he knows nothing at all.  Times you need his shoulder to cry on and times you just wish he would leave you alone.  Regardless of how you may feel about dad, I can promise he always loves you. You have a great dad.

Psalm 103:13
Just as a father has compassion on his children, 
So the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him.

I know your dad is having fun in Alaska but I am glad he comes home on Saturday.
