This Fathers Day is a very special one to me because of what we have been through and lived through as a family this year. As a father, I am truly truly blessed. I have watched God work through my son to change the lives of people and most importantly change my life. I have watched my son overcome adversity, beat the odds time and time again, and always come out on the other side with a smile on his face. I have never been so proud!!
I have a 3 year old daughter who is the most caring, loving, and compassionate little girl I have ever seen. I have watched her this past year care for, tend to, love on, and watch over her little brother like an angel. That is truly what she is.. An Angel. I have never been so proud.
I have a 6 year old daughter who has just been diagnosed with Diabetes. I am watching her take 4 insulin injections daily, to many to count blood checks, special diet restrictions, and yet she seems as though everything is normal. Never a tear shed with injections or finger pricks. She is the bravest little girl I have ever seen and I have never been so proud.
I have a 9 year old daughter who keeps the lighter side of the family going. She is outgoing, she is witty, a little too witty at times, but she laughs more than any person I have ever met and because of that, I have never been so proud.
I have a wife who is the glue that holds the family together. She takes care of everything that needs taken care of, she is the greatest friend I have ever had, she is the best mother to my children that I could ever ask for. She is the love of my life and I don't think I could ever live one day without her. When I look at her the pride wells up from deep inside of me.
Through all that this family has been through this year, it is easy to stand today and say that I Have to be the luckiest dad in the world.
By the way today makes day 17 with no seizures!!!!! GO DAWSON GO
