Last night, Matthew asked me how come I was able to do something. I can’t remember what it was, but it was something he didn’t yet know how to do.

I said with a grin and with enthusiasm, “Cuz I ROCK!”

And he came right back, “You DO rock!!!”

That totally surprised me, though it shouldn’t. This nearly four year old boy, as my wife often says, sounds JUST LIKE US! And he thinks his daddy “rocks,” which, I think, is how it should be.

May I continue to merit such praise in the coming years. I love how much he adores me and looks up to me and it makes me long all the more to model for him godly humility and loving faithfulness as a father and husband.
