I will give you a daily example. Monday was my hearing for the 90 mile per hour speeding ticket (the post was What Happens When You Are Driving While Listening to Motivational Tapes Dec 18). The hearing was 70 minutes away. When I got the ticket in December, I didn't want to even look at it so my husband did everything for me...he filled out all the paper work and the plea, put a stamp on it and mailed it...he just told me where to sign. The next week when I got the court date he asked me if I wanted him to go with me. I told him " No, I don't think so. Why would you come? " He asked me again the next day if I was sure I didn't want him to go with me. I said "No, really what could you do? " A week later he said , "I have to block my calendar now if you would like me to go with you, I will happily go but I need to know so nothing gets scheduled." I said , "No, I would rather you take the time off when I need you, just go to work. There is nothing really for you to do." So it was completely and totally settled I was going by myself and he was not going with me. We were at parties with friends last weekend, and I was telling them about the hearing on Monday. They all said to me, "you are lucky your husband the lawyer is going with you." Then I told everyone he wasn't going with me. So it is now Sunday at midnight and my hearing is Monday at 8:30am. I woke up my husband and said, "Could you come with me tomorrow?"
He came.
Aw, how sweet that he came with you last minute! Hope all went well. :)
ReplyDeleteLove this. :)
ReplyDeleteaw, sounds like me and my husband. he is always asking me if i want him to do something for me like making breakfast and i always say no thank you but as soon as i see his breakfast he made i want some, so he always makes me some even if i say no because i always end up wanting it ;-)
ReplyDeletethat is awesome, hope it went okay.
ReplyDeleteWhat would we do without our awesome hubbies! Mine would do anything for me and I feel truly blessed.
ReplyDeleteThat's so sweet :) Hope everything turned out ok!
ReplyDeleteAwwww! I am betting he took the day off the minute he found out the date, just in case! You will have to tell us how everything turned out.
ReplyDeleteI love this! I bet he had the time blocked the entire time! Sounds like my {first} husband ;0) laura@imnotatrophywife.com
ReplyDeleteHope all is well. Sounds like you have a very sweet Hubby.
ReplyDeleteThat'a dedication for you...hope it all went ok. xx

ReplyDeleteLoressa!
Such a loving and supportive husband you have, you are so lucky!
ReplyDeletethat's the best possible answer-you have a wonderful husband. just one question-what was the disposition?
ReplyDeleteYour hubby sounds really sweet! Sorry about your son's job! That's horrible. I have a friend who is in her 40s and was working at a gas station and was fired also for the same thing, selling cigarettes to an underaged person. Only problem is she wasn't the original cashier. Another cashier gave the person the cigarettes and something happened with the gas pumps and he had to run out to check what was going on so he quickly told my friend, who was busy with customers of her own, to ring up the customer. A little later, just like with your son, her boss fired her and the other cashier. It was a set up also. So sad. Thanks for following!
ReplyDeleteThis post made me smile. Simple as that. Great Husbands rock!
ReplyDeleteHappy seeing beautiful!
How funny. That sounds like something I would do. We know they love us when they put up with our crazy ways.

Love is a verb, in my opinion. It is what we do that makes love POWERFUL. As a noun, it is only a thing that makes us happy for the moment. But love is an action indeed, that can be shown to our enemies as well. How clever and eternally wise of Him.........Anita
Following you now from the FNF Hop! Excited to learn from your mom-of-8 wisdom as I'm just now starting out on my mothering journey! :) Would love if you'd follow back!:

It's great that you have a husband like that. I don't know about you, but our family has been having a bit of a hard time of things financially recently, and sometimes I'm tempted to look at others who have it easier in that respect. But then I think of how much my husband loves the kids and me, we haven't experienced abuse, or serious or illness, and then I realize--we have it good, REALLY GOOD! Love makes everything good! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteAng (also mother of 8!)
