My Husband

Today I am thankful for my husband. Last night he had to work late. Thursday nights I have to work double time to get everything done and I was not pleased to be left two hands short. There was a pile of things to get ready for Art class and First Friday, not to mention I needed to pack for my race( I am leaving as soon as I get home tonight to drive two hours for the race tomorrow).

However, when he did get home he wanted to know what he could do to help. I sometimes find it hard to delegate. I feel that things do not get done right or fast enough. I spent some time trying to make a St. Patty's day centerpiece. Anything I did my hubby said looked okay. Men , most men, don't have any sense of style. I found it hard to believe that he was right. We got everything done and hit the bed about 10. Not bad. I actually felt like I was forgetting something since it was so early.

Max woke up and would not settle back down. He wanted to brush his teeth, but would just hold the brush and cry. I would try to take it away so we could go back to sleep, he just cried harder. I was about to lose my mind and the hubby got up and took him in the livingroom. Max even willing handed over the toothbrush for him. If I hadn't been so tired I might have been offended.

And this morning while I was in the shower I had an idea to add the finishing touch to the centerpiece. I threw on clothes and set to trying it. It was just what it needed. I set my hubby and Abigail to finishing it while I dried my hair. He even got Max up and dressed and we were out the door 10 minutes ahead of schedule! Amazing.

The centerpieces were cute little glitter pots with oreo and marshmellow flowers, with tissue paper leaves and bead gravel. They got several compliments, didn't cost much and the children enjoyed eating them. I never would have gotten it all done with out my hubby! For him I am truly blessed.
