Thankfull

I am just sitting here thinking how thankfull I am that my wonderful husband only works normal hours.   Due to car problems (and a blessing from the Lord) my husband has had to work a lot of overtime this week.  Boy does it make it a long week.  I love the fact that my husband walks in every day at 4:45.  It is still early enough to play with the kids, do an outside project if needed (oh ok if we did outside projects lol).  We can have dinner as a family and just hang out for a couple of hours.  I remember thinking last week there were too many hours to hang out... why didn't the kids go to bed already so Chris and I could hang out; well, this week he has not had much time to hang out and he is tired.  It makes everything feel rushed and unsetteled.  So I take back my complaint and am thankful for all the time our family has together.   I am also thankfull that my cute and wonderful honey does not work all this overtime normally just for money's sake because him working like this is not worth much..(it truly is a neccessity)  No amount of extra stuff would be worth my husband not being here for us.  I can't think of anything I want bad enough to have him this tired, and cranky (just kidding)  Without him I am incomplete and at a loss.  Just know he is minutes from home makes me smile. (and not because I can hand the kids off... just because I like seeing his face.  I like him asking me if I heard about so and so.. knowing with the kids I don't listen to the news...I like surprising him sometimes when I had a minute to grab the news and ask him if he heard about so and so.

So my heart to you women whose husbands don't work  normal hours...
