Thank You John

My friend Elizabeth just posted about her husband and it's inspired me to do the same. I just want to say that I am so grateful for my husband. Right now I am especially grateful for his support. John is so wonderful. He always supports me in whatever I choose. I know that I never have to worry about a decision I've made because he will support me on it. If he came home from work and I said I had decided I wanted to work full time and put Anne in daycare, I know he would support me on it and do what we needed to do to make it work. If I said that I only wanted one child, he would be okay with that too. John is still a human and would obviously have his opinions and desires but he is so incredibly selfless that it amazes me. It borders on saintness, it really does. He is constantly putting my needs ahead of his own. I can't tell you what freedom this support gives me. To not have to worry about decisions I make, to know that whatever I choose, he will be open, accepting and loving about it. Last night we had a talk while falling asleep (which with an insomniac wife is a rarity), and he told me he would support me on a major decision we have been rolling around in our heads for the past month or so. I had such a sense of freedom and release, knowing he was completely on my side and would work this path with me. I woke up this morning with a lot of hope. I am really excited to see what happens in the next several weeks due to our little talk last night.

So John, thank you so much for being so incredibly selfless. Even though I have such a hard time saying it, I notice everything you do for me. I know that I am incredibly blessed. I store up all these things in my heart...
