I have hardly any time to tell you why Marc rocks today…

My husband rocks because he does things that he knows mean alot to me.

For example..Last night we caught a raccoon in a live trap..we are overwhelmed with them here..and they get in our attic AND they steal eggs AND they snack on our chickens.  I prefer that we don;t shoot them becuase in Texas they seem to breed all year round.  Usually a mama raccoon will have her babies nearby so if she gets live trapped they are easy to find…not so much when she it killed.

Anyway…one was in the trap shortly after Marc set it last night and he had to work this morning..that means that the raccoon would be in the trap from 10 p.m. until well after noon today…and I can tell you I was NOT sticking my hand in there to give it water.  Marc, even though I know he was exhausted, drove it 20 minutes away to where our chuch is (on a wildlife preserve area..we have a COOL church) and let it go by the pond there.  It meant that he got home after 11 and had to be up at 5 a.m.

But he is a softie when it comes to animals and I was so blessed that he took the time to do that!

And THAT is why my husband ROCKS!

My Husband ROCKS! Friday

Marc rocks because he can still make me melt with one look.  You would think that over a period of time it would get old, or boring….that the things that made me fall in love with him in the first place would fade…

After all…28 years…

Nope. Not at all.  The man is hot.  I am visual.  It is a combination that works for us!

If I mention that I like him in a certain article of clothing he makes an effort to wear it.  He definitely gives me plenty of eye candy…

I appreciate so many things about him. Conversation, intelligence, sense of humor, compassion…..

but this week, I just want you to know….

the man is hot.

My Husband ROCKS! Friday

Late again, but I told ya..I was at the VA all day!  Kay Lin is the hostess for this and you can see more about My Husband Rocks at her blog, The Great Adventure.

Marc rocks for so many reasons.  One thing that I really appreciate about him is that he lets me be me.

Now, this may surprise you but….I am kinda weird.  And sometimes rather…uh….straight forward.  Without much beating around the bush.  And some people consider me…hmm…tactless.

Today was a good example.  We were at our coffee date and I wanted to talk about some of the medical issues he is having and how it has affected his personality.  So I said, “I really love you but I am not in love with your alter ego. ”

And then I proceeded to explain all of the foibles of his “alter ego”..a man who he has not met but who the kids and I deal with regularly.

And he listened.  And he was o.k. with listening.

Have you realized that Marc, a very private person, has allowed the intimate details of our lives to be plastered all over this blog..and handled it with dignity and patience?  He is not defensive, he doesn’t have a problem apologizing, and he listens to me incessantly sometimes.

I love this man.

And that is why Marc Rocks…my world…

My Husband ROCKS! Friday

Friday all ready?

This week has been so very busy, with settling in here and Daring Bakers Challenge on Baking Delights…and I have a cookbook that I just signed a contract on….there are the regular blog things… my other blogs…..trying to plan homeschool in a more organized manner so Marc can implement it more easily…cooking..cleaning…VA appointments…

WHEW!

Anyway, Katy Lin hosts My Husband Rocks every Friday. If you are a wife then this is a great way to focus on the positive aspects of your husband and your marriage. What we concentrate on tends to become our reality, you know?

Marc rocks because he has been committed to me, of all people, for 28+ years.  This amazes me every,  single day.

Every single one of those days he has loved me unconditionally even when I am unlovable.

Every single one of those days he has worked hard to allow me to stay home.  In 28 years I have never had to work.

He has been an integral part of our homeschool experience.

He has made an effort to care about those things I care about, whether or not they were something he was initially interested in.

And…he is so very…very….very…hot.

And that, my friends, is why my husband rocks.  Outloud. Everyday.
