Learning to Praise Him More
Oct. 2, 2007
My Husband

I am very thankful for my husband.   Somedays he may not feel as appreciated as he should, but I will work on that.

He used to travel a lot for business.  Since moving to SC, he is only gone a couple nights a year.   That is so much better than week after week of traveling and he would only be home on the weekends.  We accepted it because he had to for the job.   

I had (still have), I very special friend that would call me every single day while my husband was gone to make sure that we were doing okay.  Those phone calls meant the world to me.  She will never know the days that her phone call was the only bright spot in the day.   Having a newborn, toddler and preschool, with no family nearby, was pretty hard.

Anyway,  back to my husband being gone....   He is away from home tonight.  The first time this year so I can't complain.  And he will be home tomorrow.

I am really missing him tonight.  He adds laughter to our home (yeah, I am the boring one).  Josh was all bummed out that I would be the only one tucking him into bed tonight.    I let them have cookies right before bed just so they wouldn't miss Dad to much.  ;-)  Of course, they did brush after the cookies, just so they wouldn't think I was gone also. ;-)

After the kids were tucked in bed, it got pretty quiet around here.  It is very dark and quiet way out here in the country.   I am amazed at the amount of security that I feel just by having my husband here.     I am a little more nervous about noises and such without my husband here. 

Well,  I guess I will head to bed.   I will remember to tell my husband how much I appreciate him when he gets home tomorrow.  I guess I need to be reminded once and a while.

Thanks for stopping by,
Kerry
