29

29- I'M THANKFUL FOR: JUSTIN:

Justin is my rock. We've been thru alot of ups and downs...and lately more downs than ups. We hardly see eachother, the last date we went on without kids was months ago, and we just seem to be on opposite ends. But I know we are meant to be together and I believe the vows we took when we were married. And a big one was being there for one another thru anything and to rely on the Lord to help out in those times.
So even with the bad, Justin has the most admiring qualities you could ask for in a husband. He's been working his butt off lately. He is salary paid but puts about 75 hours a week into work, hoping it'll save on labor and to provide the best he can for us. He's been donating plasma as a part time job twice a week to help bring in extra money (since it's the only other job that will fit into his workload) He comes home, even after working all day, and makes sure I am ok. He spends time with the kids so they know how much he loves them. He helps around the house with dishes, laundry, and cooking dinner. He ALWAYS fills the gas tank. He loves to study the gospel to help me understand it better. He pulls all the grays out of my hair so I don't have to pay for hair dye. He's a wonderful example of what I want my kids to grow up to become. He has great manners. He has a wonderful personality and can talk to just about anyone. He's super friendly. He always opens the door for me, either in the car or going into our out of a building. He's willing to learn what he does not know. He's got a wacky sense of humor, but it makes me smile when he laughs so hard at his own jokes. He's always supportive of everything I do.
He's the calm to my storm. He's the sweet to my sour. He's the light in my dark. He's the snuggly to my prickly. He's the laid back to my neurotic. He's the positive to my negative. He's the faith to my unknowing. He's the hope to my despair. He's the King to my Queen. And even thru all we have gone thru and will go thru in the future, I feel very at peace knowing I get to have eternity to figure it out with the love of my life!
