I love my husband!

Disclaimer: it may be mushy, so if you don't want to hear the mushy stuff stop reading now.

I adore my husband.  God truly blessed me and gave me the most incredible man for a husband.  He is SO handsome, too.  Sometimes I wonder how I was so lucky to get this guy...but then I remember that it isn't luck, but God's goodness and gift to me. 

He's not perfect.  I live with him, so I know this very well.  I'm not either and never will be, so we're even.  But he loves me.  He loves his kids.  He loves God.  I'm good with that.

February has been a rough month (not in our marriage, but in life).  Mostly because I started the month off with a cold, which turned into a sinus infection, not too mention hormones and the lot.  So, last week Casey came home from work with the cutest little stuffed animal puppy dog for me AND, a couple of little lego sets for the boys.  I just cried (hormones).  I was so touched because he knew I was having a rough time (with life + my issues).  Now, the man is at a disadvantage because he can't bring home flowers, even though I love them, they don't love me.  Thanks to my allergies, flowers are a no.  And, goodness knows I don't need a box of chocolates. 

So, Valentine's day has always been a little tricky.  Not too mention that we are usually financially challenged.  I was really not expecting anything, but he surprised me again by bringing me home a mocha from starbucks.  It doesn't count as chocolate, because it's coffee.  Coffee is always good.  And, he brought the boys a Muppets movie.   We were all happy.  Especially after the boys presented him with his gift...a box of chocolates!  His metabolism can handle it...and he shares. :>) 

A little while later Casey brings me another gift.  Seasons 1 and 2 of Psych!!!!!  I really love that show, it's hilarious.  AND, he has some sort of surprise planned for me (us) on Friday night.  I have no idea what it is, but I don't care.  I'm just so thrilled with my husband for going out of his way to show me love.  He is truly the greatest gift.
