My Husband Rocks


So, I know my hubby will probably be the only one who reads this, since I don't think anyone else has even seen this blog. However, I got this idea from another blog that I follow, and I have decided to post it here instead of on the family blog.

I absolutely adore my husband. I think he is one of the greatest men on the face of the planet. I admire his ability to make friends with almost anyone, almost anywhere. I love that the people he works with look up to him and can tell there is something different about him because of the way he lives his life. I know he's not perfect, but I know that he genuinely tries to be the best husband, father, son, uncle, friend and person that he can be. He is an example to all who meet him, and I appreciate the example he is to me.

I love how passionate he is about what he believes religiously, politically, socially and emotionally. I love how he isn't afraid to tell people how he feels about almost everything. I may not always be too crazy about how he discusses his viewpoints, but I still love him and his desire to share what he believes about life. :) I often wish I had the same courage and knowledge.

I appreciate how he makes me want to be a better person. When I know I'm not performing up to my full potential, he's the one who I lean on for support, and he helps me realize that I can do all that I am asked to do. I know he will be there for me no matter what. I love him for the strength he gives me, and I can only hope I am able to do the same for him.

Toby, I love you with all my heart. Thank you for all you are!

Memories

I still remember the fun I had Not having a care in the world-- Riding bike and climbing trees, Swimming on hot summer days, Reading in bed 'til I fell asleep. Many times I wish to be there, Filling my days with so much. Then there were the friends We swore we would always be; As we grew, they faded away, But there was one who stayed-- That one I can never forget. As much as I long to be carefree, I'd never give up the freedom: So many more options now, And ever so many decisions. But if I didn't have it all, When would I ever learn? So much to look forward to: Doing what I've always wanted-- Giving and helping so many, Fulfilling my wildest dreams, Beginning a miraculous love. Life is full of such great wonder-- We must remember the past, Never forget the future plans, But always live for today! --July 14, 2003 I was feeling pretty reminiscent the day I wrote this, remembering my childhood. The part about a friend never forgotten is about my best friend who I had growi...

The Picture Perfect Yard

  I was switching laundry over in the laundry room and happened to look over at the footage of our security cameras (mounted on the roof of the house), and I noticed how absolutely beautiful my front yard looks right now. The grass is a beautiful dark green and looks full and nicely trimmed. The palm trees are tall and trimmed. It looks absolutely picture perfect. I found this amusing because I know when I'm outside and looking at my front yard that it is not perfect AT ALL. The grass is growing unevenly. There are bare spots. The palm trees are just about ready to be trimmed again. And there is a giant dead tree that needs to be cut down because large branches keep falling off. Then, I thought how much we are like my yard. At a distance, we might look pretty picture perfect to others, but if we really get up close and personal with each other, we begin to see each other's imperfections and areas that need work. And if we really truly get to know one another, we get glimpses of...

Addendum to "Political Rant"

I was just rereading what I wrote earlier and realized that there were a few other things that I wanted to mention but had forgotten. First, I want to let you know that I know the health care system is broken. I do believe that insurance costs and the cost of getting care are too high, but just to reiterate, I do not believe that government run health care is the answer. I also do not think it is right that insurance companies purposely find loopholes in people's policies just so they won't have to pay for their care. That is just sick and wrong. But again, I don't believe putting the government in charge of things would make anything any better. Having said that, I also know that I would much prefer paying a lot of money to get the care from the doctor I want and the hospital I want than to have someone tell me who I can or cannot see. I also like knowing that if something horrible happened to me or one of my family members, we wouldn't have to worry about getting the ...
