Day 4: the parentals
David and Patti Johnson, my dearest parents.
I am ever so appreciative of them. They raised me in a Church-going, manner-minding, people-serving, sports-playing, music-singing, hard-working, slave-driving kinda way. (just kidding on that last one:) I think I turned out pretty good so they must have done a good job!
My dad is one of the most servant hearted, hard working people I’ve ever known. He will go out of his way to do anything for anyone, even if he doesn’t know them. I am proud to call him dad.
My mom is a giver and a volunteer. She gives even when she has nothing to give. She volunteers to help out even when it’s completely out of her comfort zone.
One of my favorite things about them, and this may shock them, is to see them working together. The things they create together are always so good. My dad being a construction major in college, can build almost anything. My mom, being the daughter of an artist, is quite artsy/craftsy herself. Be it a 2D polar bear or statue of liberty for Vacation Bible School at church, a poster for my sports teams, or shelves for my room, all have been great. My mom designs, my dad creates, my mom paints/decorates/etc. They truly do make a great team, I wish the rest of the world could enjoy more of what they can do. Here’s a couple pictures of things they’ve done:
Statue of Liberty for Vacation Bible School this week.
Shelves they made for me in college. I recently painted the black, it was originally pink, not sure what I was thinking when I requested that! Dont’ they look great! Mom designed, dad built, mom painted, they are like a well oiled machine:)
I am blessed by how they love and support me in every way. Thanks mom and dad! Love you!
