Happy Father's Day
Happy Father's Day!
It's June--can you believe it?! 2012 is going to be a big year and it's already almost half way over. By the end of the year, Lord willing I will have completed my first headlining tour, released a Christmas album (so excited!) and welcomed our baby girl into the world! But before all of that happens, I wanted to share some thoughts about Father's Day.
I am so blessed with a wonderful Dad, a fantastic father-in-law, and an amazing husband. They are wise, Godly men who are a huge source of support and encouragement in my life. My Dad has been one of my biggest supporters from the very beginning. I always value his wisdom and his perspective. He always worked so hard to provide for my mom and I. My husband Matt is my rock--he leads our family, challenges me to love God more, and I am so blessed that we get to travel together. I love watching him be a dad to Eli. It is such a beautiful image of how God loves and cares for us...and it's pretty cute too! :)
I am so excited to be able to celebrate Father's Day with Matt, my father-in-law, and my dad this year because my parents just moved to Georgia! I am so close to my due date, so I'm not sure if we'll celebrate Father's Day at home or in the delivery room, but either way, I'm glad my parents, Matt's parents and I can all be together.
This Father's Day, I hope you take the opportunity to show love to all of the Father-figures in your life, whether they are dads, stepdads, pastors, teachers or grandfathers. They are so important...treasure them and show them you care this Father's Day!
Love,
Francesca

That is so sweet!
That is such a sweet story! I think it's really nice that you and your dad have such a good relationship. I love my daddy, and I'm glad to know that there are more people in the world that have a good family relationship.
thank you
Thank you so much for writing the music that you do, and taking the time to post all of these journal updates. I think that its really cute how you talk about Eli playing with his daddy.
i pray for you daily,

Being a father isn’t always
Being a father isn’t always easy, but the rewards of the job make the sacrifices well worth it. There is no greater gift to children than the security that comes from knowing their dad loves them and can be relied on to put their needs first. Fathers who practice this form of sacrificial love will forever hold a special place in their children’s hearts.
