My Husband

Thankful really isn't a strong enough word for how I feel about my husband. He is an amazing man, friend, husband and father. We are a team. Last night we managed to get 3 kids to 4 different places all within an hour and a half. We don't have defined lines. Yes, he works in an office everyday and he gets an actual paycheck, but he knows that what I do is just as important as what he does. He knows I bust my ass just as hard as he does every day. He knows that being a stay at home Mom is not a job that is measured by a raise or a great review. He knows there are many days when I feel like I've lost myself in this chaotic life and he validates me. Sometimes I have to ask for it, sometimes I don't, but he always makes me feel like what I do IS important. When the kids are complimented by a teacher or friend, he says "they are that way because of you - you taught them to be that way". Not only does he love me, but he loves being a Dad, and he's good at it. He never hesitates to throw a football or play a game, even when he got up at 4 to be at work early just so he could get home in tme for dinner. He spends his days off sitting in the Winstead cafeteria for 3 hours and doesn't complain about it. He is NOT perfect and we have our moments, but plain and simple he is a good man, he has a good soul and he is a great partner. And he is one of the things I am really, really, really thankful for everyday.
