(Kevin will probably kill me for posting this, but since this blog is basically my journal, I couldn't go without documenting it.)
Ever since we got home from Disneyland a few weeks ago, I have had a hard time keeping up with life in general. I have been trying to work more to make up for work I missed while on our trip. Add into the mix getting ready for Christmas and I was feeling quite overwhelmed. A few days before Christmas Kevin and I were sitting down after we put our kids to bed to just talk about the day. He just asked me how I was doing. I said "pretty good" (with a BIG sigh), and he asked me what would make me really good. I jokingly started listing things that I hadn't gotten to around the house that needed to be done. Well, I went to bed that night (thinking he was coming up right behind me) and woke up the next morning to the following note:
He had completed all of the chores I had mentioned while I was sleeping. He won't tell me what time he went to bed, but I suspect it wasn't until around 2am. When he has to wake up at 4am, that is quite a sacrifice. I cried tears of gratitude all morning long, while thanking my Heavenly Father for sending such a wonderful man into my life. My happiness is always #1 on his list. I truly don't deserve him! He lifted more of my burdens that day than he realizes.
I love you Kev!!!

You two are such an amazing couple! I want to be like you when I grow up.

What a babe! That made ME tear up. Wow.
What the crap. . .you need to tell him to knock it off. He's setting the bar WAY too high for the rest of our husbands. :) What a great guy! Now get him to fly you up here for a visit! :)
