I know I have already done a “Positive Post Tuesday” about Kristin, but you know what? There’s a lot to brag on her about and I felt like it. Plus it’s my blog and I get to do that if I want.
Kristin is the most loving, genuine person I know. She has dealt with my weird ideas for almost eight years now, and from what I can tell, still likes me enough to hang around me. I remember a handful of people telling us, when we got married so young that it wasn’t going to last and there was no way we were mature enough to start our lives together. Maybe we weren’t mature enough, but we were determined enough to prove them wrong. Now it’s been eight years, we have lived in six different houses, had three kids, and are still figuring things out, but it’s been an exciting adventure so far.
This year has been rough for us. Literally starting at the first of the year, things seemed to have been attacking us from all sides. It hasn’t stopped, and at times has only felt like it has only gotten worse. Kristin and I have had so many long talks that result with only one thing for certain. That we are in this together and that is the only thing that makes us feel like we can make it through. I know for a fact, that there is no way that I could be doing anything without her right next to me, and I hope she feels the same.
Kristin is the hardest worker, most loving mother, caring friend, and creative artist that I know. I know that most men will say that they don’t deserve their wives and they are mostly all right. I too, join in that list of men that truly, honestly don’t deserve to have such an amazing woman in my life. However, I am ambitious today. I am ambitious to treat my wife in a way that she deserves. I don’t know how, but I want to show her how much she means to me and just how much I couldn’t live without her. I could never completely show her how much I need her and love her, but today I want to show her more than I have.
This “Positive Post Tuesday” thing has gone so well and I have been blown away by all the people participating in it. I hope that through this the people writing the posts are being as encouraged as the people that are being written about. I know sometimes it’s hard to come up with something nice to say every week, and it has been for me too, but I think it’s an amazing exercise for us to practice. Let’s see how many posts we can get today. If you are new you can go here and read how this whole thing started. Then the rest is easy. Just write something nice about someone, come back here and add your name and address to the list below. Tell your friends. Let’s make this massive. Sound good?
