Happy Father’s Day to my Dad (and all of the other dads out there)! We hope you have a great day! This sounds like a good excuse (as if I needed one) to post a few Bill Cosby videos on here. I had no idea that he knows my family so well…
The I’m just sayin… Proverb of the Week
Proverbs 4:1-3
1Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction;
pay attention and gain understanding.
2I give you sound learning,
so do not forsake my teaching.
3For I too was a son to my father,
still tender, and cherished by my mother.
