For The Mrs...

The Mrs at MyJourneyinDD asked us what we love and appreciate about our husbands.

This could take a while...

I love his take control, no nonsense, take no prisoners demeanor.  He knows how to get things done without being a bully.  I think it's sexy ;)

I love that he tries to help around the house.  It's cute when I have to go in and rearrange my cloths because he hung them up wrong.  It shows me he tried.

I love that he never gives up on anything.  He's so stubborn sometimes but he's so persistent.

I love that he listens to my thoughts and ideas and honestly believes I'm a genius.

I love the way he kisses my forehead or pets my hair.  It makes me feel safe.

I love how hard he works to make me smile.

I love that he is the type of person who will jump in his truck and help look for a missing neighbor kid even if the kid's mom is crazy (that's a long story), or run out to help a friend stuck in a ditch in the middle of the night, or give a homeless guy money or food.

I love that he always takes my side on everything.  There are a ton of people who have their opinions about everything, but he stands behind me through and through.

I love that he cries when he says good-bye to his dad after visits. Shh, don't tell him I told you all that, it embarrasses him, but I think it shows a lot of heart and love.

I love how he just gets me.  He knows when I'm hurting, knows when to make me talk about it, knows when to try to make me laugh and knows when I need a spanking.

There are so, so many more but this could go on for ages, so I won't go into all of them.

OK she also asked for the funniest moment.  This is so hard to choose from but I remember this one time just after we were married I caught him and my son having a food fight.  I know it may not seem so funny written out like that, but I walked in to see a 30 year old man and 7 year old boy throwing spaghetti at each other.  I thought this kind of stuff only happened on TV, yet here it was going on in my kitchen.  They did clean it up afterward though.
