It isn't often that I blog about my husband. Although I think he's pretty great, I have two little ones who captivate me in everyway imaginable. Between them and my randomness, there is little time to brag about Chris.
However, yesterday I brought Claire home from school early. Chris came home and looked at the blog and muttered something about all my free time and not having written a new post. So, I'll take his comment with the positivity and support that I am certain was intended and write a little something about HIM!
I've loved Chris for so long. It is odd to think we've been together almost 14 years?!! Wow! Married nearly 7! He can make me laugh like no other, make me feel like no other, embarrass the heck out of me like nearly no other and has made me prouder than nearly no other (my kids have a pretty natural knack for this as well). I don't know how he does what he does. The guy is amazing. He works 12 hour days, yet still makes time for his kiddos/wife and is finishing his MBA. He is finishing his MBA!!! Yippee!! I couldn't be more proud! Beginning in August I will no longer be able to hold the fact that I have a Master's Degree and he doesn't, over his head. (He and I are a bit competitive and tend to each have certain little quips that we like to throw at each other. Mine is regarding my higher level of education and his is "it's military stuff, you wouldn't understand." Childish to some, but amusing to us.) Anyway, I am so proud of him. He has worked so hard and sacrificed much to achieve this goal. I can't tell you how many days he has functioned on 4 hours of sleep. Far too many to count. Being one that needs her sleep, I can't quite fathom four hours repeatedly while maintaining a happy disposition. Amazing! It thrills me that he constantly tries to better himself and aspire to bigger and better things. He is the most honest person I know and although it bothered me at first, I have since grown to admire his lack of satisfaction with status quo and team mentality. He is the best teammate I know and thankfully, he's mine. I certainly don't say it often enough, but I am so proud of you, Chris. You are an incredible leader, father, husband and person. You make my life and those around you so much richer. Cheers to you!

We already have a maid, Jessica, but I could hire Chris out. That is an idea!! Can't you see him wearing the black and white dress with a little feather duster in hand. Ha.
Here's a little competition--she who sees me next will get her own post ;) Who wants it more??? Come to Korea.
