I love you because you brought home dinner for just you and I.
I had a busy day due to the fact that I had to switch all the clothes from winter to spring. It was tough. When I was carrying Williams's clothes to his room I slipped on a ride on toy. I hurt my knee, back, and hip and ribs. I am really sore. Carl brought home steak subs for me and cheese fries. It was so thoughtful of you. I love you for always thinking of me.

I love you because you made Daniel's day by taking him out for breakfast.
It seems like sometimes the little ones do not get to do as much as the bug guys. You go out of your way to make the little ones feel special. You are always giving them hugs and making sure that they have some undivided attention each day, even if it is for a moment or two. You are such a good father to our children.

I love you because you removed the sticky jelly bean mess from our bedroom floor.
The kids had jelly beans the other day to celebrate Easter. The little ones found out where I had hidden them and ateQ quite a few. Some child decided to spit them out all over my bedroom carpet. Carl and I have been stepping on sticky jelly beans for a week now. I keep meaning to look up how to remove the residue but just never got around to it. Carl was ironing his pants this morning for work. We have a steam iron so he just decided to see if it would get the jelly beans up. It worked beautifully. I now have jelly bean free carpet. Thank you my sweet man for getting down on your hands and knees to do this for me. I love you.

I love you because you do not mind that I go down and visit with my mom and dad on the weekends you have army duty. I know that we have talked about me taking the kids to our church. I would like to do that but right now we still have three little ones who have a hard time sitting still in the service. Thank you for your willingness to give me a little bit of a break and visit my moms church. Eventually we will get to the pint where we attend our own church those weekends. I love you.

I love Carl because he is handy around the house and can fix the hole that is in my bathtub. Also, he did not get that upset about the water leaking into the bedroom carpet.
I let the two little boys and Tirzah play in the tub yesterday. There was no water in it but they were having so much fun just running their hot wheel cars up and down the sides of the tub. Unbeknownst to me there was an accident and a little hole was made in the side of the tub near the bottom. I did not see it when I filled my bathtub up that evening. We started noticing water on the carpet and could not tell where it was coming from. We thought it might actually be the plumbing itself and were getting upset at the thought of all the money involved. The water was still leaking out. We did not want to let the water out if it was plumbing. I had Esther turn the fan off in my room so I could hear what was going on. I bent down on the side of the tub and heard the water leaking out. I then found the hole. We were then able to let the rest of the water out while I plugged the hole with my finger. Carl had to spend the evening trying to get the carpet dry and putting a hole in the wall to see what water damage was done inside the walls. We put fans near the wet area and are hoping we caught everything in time. I am praying that the carpet and the floor and ceiling are able to be saved. My dear sweet husband had to spend the night on the floor with his sore knee. Tonight he has to go home and see what else he can do. I think he is going to take the shop vac up and then also try to patch the tub. I am so thankful for a husband who can do things like that.

Head on over to my everyday blog to read about why this blogging thing has not been updated daily.

I love you Carl because you took the kids to Tae Kwon Do last night while I took Esther to our Keepers meeting. It is so important for me to instill in her how to be a godly young woman. The Keepers meeting allow me to help her in this and I truly appreciate the sacrifice you made in watching Tirzah and Caleb last night. Thank you so much. Thank you also for encouraging me to go even when I was so close to not attending. You realize the importance of this task I have in leading her to what Christ wants her to be. You are a good Daddy to her.

I love Carl because he bought me a ring that fits.
For quite a few years now the weight that I have gained has prevented me from wearing my beautiful wedding ring. I had another ring that Carl bought me when he was deployed. It somehow turned up missing. For the past 2 years I just have not worn anything. I have been expressing the desire to have a ring again as I keep getting weird looks when I go out anywhere. Here I am with 8 kids and no wedding ring. This weekend we attended a car show in my parents town. The local pawn shop had everything half off since the car show was in their parking lot. We went in and looked around. I wanted something I could wear out of the store. The chances of finding a ring that fit were very slim. We looked for a while and I tried on a lot of rings. I finally found one that fit and I love it. It is a beautiful ruby and diamond ring and IT FITS. I am so happy to be wearing a ring again.
