Gratitude Journal Day 61 - My Father's Retirement Party

Today, I am grateful for my Father and what his future looks like. 

My Father spent 36 years of his life in Education. He is a teacher, a coach and an administrator.

He was my 5th grade teacher. One of my favorites :)

I love my Father with all my heart. I was very sad that I was not able to be at his retirement party because of our school schedule. I know that we will party when I see him in a few weeks when I travel back to South Dakota this summer!

I am thankful for my Mother who planned the party to celebrate. She does so much for our family and I am very appreciative of that.

I am thankful for my brother and sister to attend and celebrate.

I am thankful for my aunts, uncles and cousins that were there to laugh and celebrate!

I am thankful for the former teacher and coaches that showed up to recognize how awesome my Father is. 

I am thankful for the family friends that chose to take time to say kind words to my Father.

I am thankful for my STM coaching friends to come and be a positive part of the celebration.

I can't wait to give my Father a hug and spend time with him. It cannot come soon enough!
