You are so sweet! I bet you just made his whole week! That was awesome! But you have to know that he could easily turn around and write an eually powerful list about you! You are amazing too!:)
I should write a song about these events. It would go something to the effect of: "I got laid off so my wife said "that's ok, I'll go to work till you find another job.""
Then I could explain the events of the day such as:
The kids are saying 'dad's yelling at us again,'
And for Harrison to get out of Koda's pen.
Chap-stick melts in a Maytag dryer,
Dirty socks do not go belong on the electric fryer,
Replay Cars for the 18th time, Where is that son of mine...
There's more gum in Madison's hair,
Muddy footprints on all the stairs,
The dog is running down the street,
Kirsti's just eaten blood from raw meat,
Bailee is up in the apple tree, And Alex is doing her hair again wondering 'what if a boy sees me.'
I think alot of guys could relate to this song. Then at the end I would say something like "Honey, you're my hero."
Arghh! So much for another claim to fame. I just heard someone say there is already a song like this...
But really, these are such fun times. I hope in all of these prosperous and struggling times of life our kids see that we have relied on the Lord and have done what he has asked us to. That as a husband, I honored, appreciated, and loved my wife. That as a father, I treated each child lovingly, tenderly, and with respect. That we have paid our tithing and fast offerings, even when money was scarce. That we have had family prayer, scripture study, and family home evening. That we have regularly attended the temple as husband and wife, and with our kids for baptisms as soon as they were old enough, so they would learn to love the temple and its sacred ordinances as much as we did. That we have fullfilled every calling given to us to the best of our abilities. That my greatest joy was spending time with my family. That our family is Eternal, and that our highest priority was in our Heavenly Father and His Son.
Thank you for being my sweet and virtuous eternal companion.
I had no Idea My husband was such a talented song writer. Amazing!
Well, when love is in the air, the possibilities and words are limitless.
I think this is the problem in the job search...He is looking in the wrong field! He should be a songwriter!!!:) What a sweet response for you! You deserve it and you are both amazing!
