Another Friday and it is time for…My Husband Rocks!

One of the  ways that Marc rocks is in an area that I have seen alot of men totally NOT. ROCK.  Leadership.

It seems to me that when men hear the words authority and submission they either decide that they are to be addressed as “Your Majesty” OR they decide that it is all too overwhelming to figure out and become passive, allowing their wives to run the show…and carry all of the burdens.

Marc is so really gifted at loving leadership, taking the role of the servant in so many ways.  Many men that had to deal with the type of pain and issues that Marc does would be sitting in front of the t.v. or whining and complaining.  Marc doesn’t.   He has some days that are better than others…this has been a particularly tough wek for him pain-wise and his thoughts are a little foggy from the medications, but he always is looking for ways to make things easier for me, to serve me, to be a loving leader.

As he worked less and I worked more he took over the laundry, alot of the homeschooling, much of the supervision of the kids.  It has been hard because I feel that those are MY areas and I don’t feel that I am being the mom and wife I want to be.  This is where we are right now..

But Marc is always figuring out ways to do things…chainsawing the wood for winter sitting  down because he can’t stand and do it.. ignoring pain to work on repairs or whatever, going grocery shopping with me so we can have some time together…even though that means he will be on his feet on his crutches and it will hurt.

He has never told me what to do although he knows that if he makes a decision I will comply.  He has never taken advantage of that.  He has never gotten defensive when I have talked to him about Mr. Grumpy or other issues.

Marc rocks because he is everything a man should be, even in very difficult times.
