Josh Duggar of '19 Kids and Counting' thanks dad Jim Bob in Father's Day video message

Josh Duggar has stayed out of the spotlight since news of his molestation scandal broke last month, but on Sunday, the 27-year old broke his silence to record a video message for his father Jim Bob in honor of Father's Day. 

In the video, Josh stands next to his pregnant wife, Anna, and begins by recalling his fondest memories with his father. Josh says that he remembers riding in the tow truck with Jim Bob as a young boy and spending all those hours together, and when he got older, he remembers being at the car lot together and learning how to do the paperwork for their business. 

"And then later on we built a house together, and we spent three a half years learning about construction and all the joys and sorrows of that," he continues. 

Josh, who is a father to three (soon to be four) children, goes on to thank Jim Bob for all his support, especially during the more difficult times in his life. 

"I know that your investment in each one of our lives is priceless, and we're so grateful for you," says Josh in the clip.

Anna added her own message for Jim Bob, saying, "Thank you for raising such an awesome husband," before kissing Josh on the lips. 

The video was uploaded to the Duggar family's website on June 21, along with other videos from James, Jackson, Johannah, Jason, Jed, Jessa and her husband Ben, and Jill and her husband Derick. 

Michelle also posted the five ways in which Jim Bob demonstrates his love for his children. She ended her post by writing, "Jim Bob is not a perfect Dad, but he is a GREAT dad!"
