Grateful Friday: My Husband

Happy Friday! It’s time for Grateful Friday! This week I am honoring my other half. I just want to thank him for the things that he does. If you don’t already know. Grateful Friday is where I take the time out and be the good things in my life. Please feel free and share what you are grateful for as well.

Ever since I started working it became apparent to me just how much The Husband took on when I wasn’t working. Sure I was here to help but as much pressure as I had on me to maintain the house he had even more on him. Sometimes we as wives look at our husbands and think that they are just doing what a man is suppose to do. They are suppose to work, pay bills, be dad, and be a great husband. These men carry so much on their shoulders. My husband did it buy himself for a little over nine years this go round. That has been the longest I have been without a job. As we are getting back on our feet I am beginning to realize how more relaxed he is. My husband is a guy who keeps things bottled up but I can see the change. He complained sometimes but it was really very rare. But him taking on and doing what he had to do for us made it possible for me to be home with our babies during so much of their lives. Even though me being home wasn’t our original plan. I feel like it was in god’s plan for me to be home as long as I was. But without The Husband it wouldn’t have been possible at all. I knew sometimes we struggled to pay bills but he was the one who would work the extra hours to make sure we could cover the bills. He was the one who many times in our marriage worked two jobs to make ends meet. While he was working these jobs and even when he was working one he would still come home and spend time with our babies. They would never know how tired their dad actually was. He still does it. Now they give him time to relax. The man is amazing. I feel bad that at times….well lets just say most of the time I forget to say thank you for al that he does. But I really do appreciate all that he does. He really does amaze me at times. I trying to learn to show him appreciation more often because of course he deserves it.
