I love my son-in-law

Let me say it flat out.  I love the newest member of our family, my son-in-law, Adam Jones.

It was a little more than a year ago that he married my daughter Krista.  That's my only daughter, firstborn child, my sweet pea and my super-pumpkin.  I had already walked her down the aisle when she was born when I rolled her bassinet from the delivery area to the nursery.  And because of Adam, I had one more aisle to go down with her.

I've seen his heart piece by piece over the past couple of years including the period when they were long distance dating and after they got married.

He loves helping people.  I saw this before they were married and I've seen it consistently since.  Adam is a "love-reflector" where he's bouncing back the love that he's felt in his life from Jesus Christ and from his family.

To him, I apologize for every time I've snarled at you and played the role of Steve Martin in Father of the Bride.  I'm proud of you and who you are.  I'm happy that you're part of our family.

Like you, I thank God for my family, including its newest member.  I am a blessed man.  I love being part of a family.

Krista, you picked well or is it good?
