Why I Love My Husband (the never ending list)

22. He does little things that shows his love for me.  For example: He got up early this morning to put gas in the van before he left for work, just so I wouldn't have to do it before heading to piano.  These things can sometimes say "I love you" louder than anything I know.

23. He helps me with the grocery shopping.

24. He's almost as at bargain shopping as I am. ;)

25. He doesn't mind shopping for fabric and craft supplies with me.

26. He let's me bounce my ideas off him and helps me make the ever so difficult decision of which fabric to buy.

27. He is my best friend.

28. He doesn't mind when I mess up dinner, it's just another opportunity to have pizza.

29. He completes me.

Why I Love My Husband (the never ending list) video clip

There are many reasons why I love my husband.  Number 21 on my list is a video clip.  The Man made the video with the help of his cousin on a work related trip that separated us for the first time after being married.

There's More Than Meets the Eye

If you look from the outside you may see a tired man working hard, going to school with not much extra time to spare. But, if you live on the inside you will see so much more.  You will see a husband who loves his wife immensely. You will see a father whose utmost concern is his children. You will see sacrifice of sleep, sometimes sweets ;) all to show his family love.  You will see a man who is thoughtful and analytical of every word and action that his children do.  You will see a man who is ever thinking of the future for his children, not only in their physical needs, but most importantly their spiritual needs.  You will see him sewing seeds of wisdom and love.  You will see him carefully tending the garden of his children's hearts, pulling the weeds and giving food and water to their souls. You will see a husband who only has eyes for one woman, his wife.  If you look into those eyes you will see that his love and care goes so deep that there are no words to describe it, so he makes up his own "EST".  If you live on the inside you will see that this husband is ever playful and sweet with his wife.  He is thoughtful and caring. He is encouraging and helpful.  He doesn't expect too much, but he isn't surprised by just how much she can do. Why? Because he believes in her. He believes in her even when she doesn't believe in herself.  He is her best friend and she is his.  Life isn't always easy, fun and games, but this family has heaven on earth. This family loves, believes, cares, enjoys life. Why? Because this family has Christ and has centered their life around him. This family has chosen to follow Christ and his example. This family cannot thank God enough for giving them a guideline to live by, because of this guideline they truly do have a heaven on earth.

Happy Wives Club

I joined the Happy Wives Club.  How cool is that?  I never even knew we had a club.  I love it though.  I found it through the Happy Wives Club blog and love what they are doing ( although I agree with most of what they are saying, don't think I agree with everything 100%).  The Why I Love My Husband  post  grabbed my attention and made me want to join and be a part of this group.  Not like I really need an excuse to brag on my hubby, The Man. ;)




This has inspired me to start my own list. My list will not be in any specific order.

Why I Love My Husband (the never ending list)

1. He has Christ as his Saviour. (I had to make this #1 because this is central to the rest of my list. Without this one thing I know he would not be who he is.)

2. He follows God's Word as to our marriage and family.

3. He thinks outside the box. Just because everyone else thinks so or says so doesn't mean it is so. 

4. He applies things across the board.

5. He is faithful.

6. He purposely does not look at other women

7. He is teaching our son to purposely not look at women.

8. His main concern is the salvation of his family.

9. He would rather be home than work overtime.

10. I can trust him.

It is so easy to go on and on, but this will have to do for now. Will you join and start your own list?
