Like any adventure being a Mom is chalk full of moments that can take my breath away. Sometimes it's because I'm avoiding the aroma of stinky feet or a dirty diaper, other times it's a slice of amazing only kids can bring that leaves me staring in awe. My rollercoaster life raising 6, soon to be 7 kids can be chaotic at times, but embracing the insanity is half the fun.

I can't see me lovin' nobody but him....

There are moments when I wonder just how exactly it is that The Man always know when I am about to wig out over something. He always seems to meet a need just as I feel like I'm about to stumble over the edge of some seemingly ginormous black hole. Thank goodness he cares enough to take my hand just before my foot leaves the ground and meets the air!

Of course, when you yell at your kids to make their beds on and really meant to say get your shoes on, I guess that's a huge clue that something is a little off that day. So maybe he's not ingenious or doesn't obtain some master mind reading power that tells him when it's one of those days, but he's still great at zeroing in on it and helping me to relax, re-think, or re-boot.

I am really blessed to have a man who so willingly accepts even the crazy days, loves my kids, and me even more for how much I love them, thinks (most days anyways) that even some of my neurotic tendencies are cute, and plans surprise moments for me to help take the edge off the not so great moments.

I really never thought I'd find someone who could put up with me like he does. Guess I'm a pretty lucky woman! Of course he's pretty darned lucky too. I mean he got a sensitive, sweet, hottie who likes cleaning, cooking, and cuddling, and doesn't mind that he can be a bit of a computer/ video game nerd.

Winners go US!
