Even though I have never met my Grandpa Barker I love him dearly.  I have heard numerous stories about him from my dad and I feel like I know him.  From what I've heard he was a genuine and loving man.  I feel like I have a special connection with Grandpa Barker, and cannot wait for the day when I get to meet him. 

Happy Fathers Day Grandpa!

Made me think of my childhood.

Read this.  This article reminded me of what it was like when I was a kid.  Now that I'm older and more independent I've realized how grateful I am for parents that made me speak up for myself.  I've watched as some friends are embarrassed to make doctors appointments or even just calling to make an appointment with the bishop.  Because my parents made me do this when I was little I can now reach out of my comfort zone and talk to people I wouldn't normally feel comfortable talking to.  Mom and dad- thanks for forcing me to make my own hair, doctor, dentist, etc. appointments all growing up.
