Fatherhood

President Harold B. Lee said "Fathers, yours is an eternal calling from which you are never released. Callings in the church, as important as they are, by their very nature are only for a period of time, and then an appropriate release takes place. But, a father's calling is eternal, and its importance transcends time. It is a calling for both time and eternity."

President Ezra Taft Benson said "We do not find the Savior leading the Church with a harsh or unkind hand. We do not find the Savior treating His Church with disrespect or neglect. We do not find the Savior using force of coercion to accomplish His purposes. Nowhere do we find the Savior doing anything but that which edifies, uplifts, comforts, and exalts the Church. Brethren, I say to you with all soberness, He is the model we must follow as we take the spiritual lead in our families."

One of the greatest joys that I have seen with the arrival of our new baby boy is watching my incredible husband with him.

This is Kent:

Kent is already such an incredible father. He is kind, gentle, and patient. He hugs and kisses little Taft, and me when I need it. He works hard to provide for our family so that I can stay home with Taft. He is what I would call a "Good Father In Israel."
