{this guy}

I am not a sappy person, don't like chick flicks all that much and its takes all I can to just write one or two lines before I sign a birthday card.  I want to be good with words, but they just don't come to me...imagine all the papers I wrote in college and grad school...not a fun time!  And I have been wanting to do a post for a while about this person, but I am having a hard time putting words together to explain my feelings for this guy.  And, when you know you have something good, you don't want to brag about it, but at the same time you want to share how important something is to you.  So, I am gonna do it!

Jarrett and I had a quick meeting-love-married story.  We met in January, engaged in July, and married in December.  So in 11 months we went from strangers to life long partners.  I never thought twice about it and can't imagine anyone else to share my craziness with!

This guy is quiet when you first meet him and you think he is shy...he isn't.

This guy loves his entire family and tells them outloud on the phone.

This guy's best friend (aside from me) is his brother.  But they seem to talk on the phone more that we do!

This guy had more tears in his eyes when our babies were born than I did ( I was just glad they were out- lol).

This guy stopped drinking like a fish and smoking because he knew that there was more to life then that.

This guy will get mad, yell loud, and then clean the whole house because he feels so bad that he raised his voice.

This guy will help anyone who asks him, no matter what the chore is.  His heart is helpful and teaches me that I should be more like that.

This guy puts up with me- he knows me when I am not at my best, which hasn't been in a LONG time, it seems.  He knows when I get frantic about the house and the "junk" in it, and how I put silly little "have to do it this freaking minute" on the top of the list when it could wait 6 months to do it.

This guy says I am pretty when we know darn well I am not in Old Navy Pj's bc that is the only thing that fits since I decided to eat like the grocery stores are closing...for good.

This guy gets everything off my Christmas list even though our anniversary and my birthday are a week away.

This guy gave up stuff and spending money so I could stay at home with our boys.

This guy loves the Lord and I see it in him each day and he isn't afraid to share what reading the Bible has done for him.

This guy wants a house full of kids, me...not so much- like the idea, but not the work!

This guy will forgive me over and over for things I know I shouldn't do- like charge things, get expensive hair cuts, go to Target alone (=trouble),  forget to cook dinner because my day was just so busy when really Pinterest  time just got away from me while the boys napped, and leave the gas light on and drive ALL the way home with it on. :)

This guy tries to make me laugh when its the last thing I want to do, when I am grumpy, sad, etc...and he does have the best sense of humor around in my opinion.

I could keep going but you get the point.  I see some couples who just make each other work better and I hope that one day people can see that in us.  So there is my brag on my man.....

And here is our song that we say describes us- not all the lyrics, but just makes us laugh more than anything :)
