Thankful for a husband who TAKES the bad jobs in our home.

I really miss being personal with you guys, and that is one of the changes that I am making in 2015, going back to sharing a lot of family stories with you.

This is necessarily a family story, but an observation that I had last weekend, I posted it on my Instagram page, and wanted to share with you guys my update:

“Currently, my husband is sitting in his car on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck to come and tow his truck away because I wrecked it. I am humbled to think of all the times Paul does the things for us that are unpleasant. Husbands, in my opinion, don’t always get the thanks they deserve now days, and I am guilty of it. No one was injured, but because I clipped a curb, 2 tires and 2 expensive rims were destroyed which will result in about $1,200 worth of damage. He was not mad or frustrated, he asked if we were all ok first thing, then he met me at the car, transferred kids to the other one and sent me on my way. He stayed with his car for 2 hours waiting for it to be towed, making sure we were safe at home.
Last week, a precious pet died. Paul had to be the one to to do the horrible job of collecting our loved one and burying him ( I am not ready to talk about this) something that I am sure I would not have been able to do. He gets the absolute worst jobs in our home, and does it without complaining. I am so grateful for him, and his service to us.”

In 2015, I am making it a point to thank my husband for all the things he does for us, especially the things that I don’t want to do, or have to do!
