More "Why I love my husband"

Some of these may be repeats. But I guess that goes to show what is important to me.


Reason #14: He buys me awesome and thoughtful gifts

Reason #15: He is quick to apologize (even when he hasn't done anything wrong)

Reason #16: He is amazing at not one job, but two

Reason #17: He loves our son more than everything but me

Reason #18: He has a passion for God and the truth that is infectious, and he is not afraid to share it

It is often at unexpected times when nostalgia strikes. I was washing bottles last week (something I have grown weary of in the last year), and also washing the bowl that I have soaked them in for a year now in order to put it away, since our bottle usage is shrinking. As I stood at the sink doing this, I felt a pang of sadness at what it meant. My baby isn't a baby anymore, and I can officially say that, since he is one now. This means a lot of changes, only one of them being fewer bottles, but for some reason, it was this change that invoked the bittersweet feelings. It's true, I am tired of washing bottles and having bottle aparatus on the counter. But for the last year, it has meant that my baby is just that, a baby. As I begin to put away bottle stuff, I also put away our baby days into my memory banks. Toddler days, here we come!


I hope everyone is having a happy happy Christmas!


Isn't this lovely? All our Christmas cards on display! We are so blessed to have so many people in our lives who love us.





Until next time,
Misty
