My husband.

Can you believe all of the blog posts as of late? I've just been a blogging fool! As I was walking into the house this afternoon, I knew I had to share this story about my sweet husband. If you live in Minnesota, you know that it was raining today. When we got home from work, Joe ran through the rain bringing a sleeping Alex in the house. Then he came back and held the umbrella over me the whole way up the ramp, I was totally covered, but Joe basically stood in the rain. And, if you know how long it takes to get up the ramp, you will know how wet Joe got. Not because he had to. But, because he sacrificed for me.



It made me think of the other day, we were heading into the house, Joe carrying my purse, my work bag, a grocery bag from the van, Arfy and Slinky Dog, all the while giving me his arm to hold onto. When Alex asked, "Daddy, can you carry me too?" Did Joe say no? Nope, he said, "Sure, come on up buddy."



I'm so thankful for Joe and his willingness to sacrifice everything for his family. I couldn't have asked for anything better. Thank you.
