So, if you hang out on facebook, you know all about the "25 random things" lists that people are making. You probably have been tagged. I like what someone said about those lists...buy me a beer and hang out with me for an evening and you are bound to learn all sorts of random things about me. Okay, so I don't drink, but a diet coke would do in my case...
How easy it is to take for granted that which is most important to you...and I am so guilty of that. Here are 25 random things that I love about my husband....
- 1. He is kind and compassionate. If you have met him, you know that already...
- 2. He is smart.
- 3. He chooses service to others over his own comfort. Every day..
- 4. He is one of the most giving people I know...of his time, talents and resources...
- 5. He is spontaneous. He has been known to wake kids up at midnight and bring them out for pancakes at IHOP.
- 6. He has a spirit of joy that he shares freely.
- 7. He has a deep love for Jesus Christ and leads his family to become more like Him..
- 8. He HATES needles and yet gives Elijah shots every other day.
- 9. He loves to travel.
- 10. He loves to spend times with his kids.
- 11. He loves to take the kids individually on mini vacations..(He and Tyler are heading to Washington D.C. next week.)
- 12. He always put me first above his own needs...
- 13. He has a passion for those with disabilities, the elderly and the sick.
- 14. He used to work in the car business and he can identify pretty much any make and model of vehicle out there.
- 15. He would adopt 20 kids if he could!
- 16. He never sits down...
- 17. He has no idea what a "facebook" is.
- 18. He loves his Church.
- 19. He has the worst looking socks of anyone I know...and his shoes aren't much better...and he doesn't care.
- 20. He loves his family..and is such a great Dad..
- 21. He is not fond of the snow and cold.
- 22. He is my best friend.
- 23. He is dependable even if he runs a little late...
- 24. He is not afraid to take all 8 kids to the Children's Museum or anywhere else. I have learned to never ask who he lost in the process..I just ask if he came home with the same number of kids that he started with..
- 25. Without him, we could never be living this incredible life. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me and I am so thankful that God knew exactly what I needed when he put us together.
When I started this list, I wasn't sure if I could think of 25 different things...and now I am finding myself wanted to add about 25 more. Lucky me to have been blessed to have him as my own.
