So Thankful for My Husband

I am not really a gushy person.  (My husband would be embarrassed if he knew I was gushing about him...but he doesn't read my blog:) 

But, after the past two weeks, I am ready to shout my husband's praises from the rooftop. 


Brian has been away on business for the past two weeks....so, I have been all alone....Doing. Everything. Myself. (breakfast, dressing, swim practice, lunch, potty training, discipline, cleaning, dinner, swim meets, baths, bedtime)  Even though my husband is typically not home until dinner or later, I always know he will be home to bath the kids, play with them way too late, do prayers and bedtime, and clean up from dinner.  But, when you face the day knowing you will not get a break until they go to bed and then there is still cleaning...it is so draining!

(By the way, I have all the more respect for single mothers after these past two weeks!)


Now, before you go thinking "WOW what a woman!"....let me just tell you, while I was swinging solo, there were some real winner moments...

*Noah went to a birthday party with no card.  His gift, a gift card, was stuck into a plain envelope that was only partially decorated.
*There were tons of unhealthy dinners...chicken nuggets, bagged French fries, canned ravioli, and frozen pizzas
*One night for dinner, I let Malachi eat M&M's and potato chips....because I was just too tired to deal with the fight.  At least, he ate something...RIGHT?
*We skipped baths a few nights...the chlorine from the pool cleans them, I think
*Malachi played the ipad while sitting on the potty....great potty training method, huh?
*I let my 8 year old son mow the lawn....because I just didn't have 2 hours to spare


So, at the end of these two weeks, I am thankful that God has blessed me with a wonderful friend....







and a terrific father....







and I am thankful that he is coming home!!!!
