for roland

have you ever been so proud of someone, not for what they did, but for what they didn't do.

tonight i am beyond proud of my husband.

for never telling me i couldn't be a stay at home mom. some men wouldn't be okay with that. sometimes the extra income would be nice, even i wouldn't deny that. but here i sit, on his day off, and he picked up a shift and went into work because it's a holiday and he knows how much more he gets paid on these days.

for never giving me reason to doubt him. about anything..period.

for never lying. even when the truth wasn't something i wanted to hear, it has always been the truth.

for never cheating on me. this may seem odd, but lately, it seems like that's the norm. the fact that i know from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet that he would never do that, makes me fall even more in love with him.

and for something he does do. for loving me and kaleb. for working his butt off so we can have and do everything we need or want. for showing me every day what real love is. for being responsible. for honoring all of his commitments. for being the father that he never had and the husband that i have always wanted.

"i'll be there for you, these five words i swear to you. when you breathe, i wanna be the air for you. i'll be there for you."

Dude, I agree. There should be a "great husband" day to celebrate, and I TOTALLY know how you feel about being so proud, I feel so proud of my husband that I don't know how to express it, I feel like anything I do doesn't even do justice to how I feel! Woo Hoo for us snagging the best of the best!!
