My Wife

My wife was raised in a very quiet house with two sisters. Moving into a life with a loud, busy husband and three crazy, wild, intense boys would be a shock for most people. But my wife has adapted and grown into the perfect mom for our boys and a loving, supportive, merciful wife to me. As we celebrate our 8th year of marriage being over and come close to our 10th anniversary of knowing each other, I want everyone to know that I think my wife is great! The latest example is today. I was stressed at work today trying to get a ton of things done in advance of a mid-week visit with some family and an end of week vacation. I wasn't able to make it home until about 9, but at 5:35 she sent me this message:

just came in from the swing set and looked at the time so I am saving the meal for another night and running to wendy's...sorry. stay at work as long as you need to- even work till midnight if you want. I am good- kids are good- we have been busy outside and they will go to bed early.
love ya- k

Any guy knows that those words are exactly what a guy needs to hear.

Thanks babe- for being my beautiful, loving, fun, spunky wife. Thanks for not putting up with my s***, and for helping me be all that I can be. I'm looking forward to the next 8 years! Happy Anniversary!
