Lucky to Have You

It's 6:30 am on a Wednesday and I was awakened a half an hour ago by a very stupid dream. I'll spare you the details because it was a dream that wouldn't happen in a million years, but rest assured it was DUMB! It's the kind of dream that makes you think about the person you married. Who is he? Does he really love me? Do I love him? Thankfully I can answer those questions in a very positive manner. He is a wonderful man who lives a good life and yes he really does love me and I really do love him. I would support him in anything he choose in life.

Yesterday I was blessed with an experience that reminded me of who I am and how much I love children. The little boy just a year and a few months older than Braxton came up to see if Braxton could play. I told him he could and within a few minutes I had five girls 8-years-old and younger in my house as well as Braxton and his friend. One of the girls asked me about my piano and I asked her if she would like to play it. I ended up with all five girls playing the piano and it reminded me how much I enjoy working with kids.
The girls would ask me to play a song as they found it in the Children's Songbook and at one point the girl in the red looked up at my wedding pictures and asked me if it was me. I said that it was and we discussed a few things about it and then she looked up at it again and said to me, "Your husband is really lucky to have you." I thought about it a lot yesterday and even allowed it for a moment to become a negative thought by allowing myself to think that Kent doesn't realize how lucky he is. I quickly turned it around and realized that I don't realize how lucky I AM to have him.

I am lucky. I am lucky to have a wonderful husband who loves me and loves to take care of me. I am lucky to have a husband who works hard everyday so that I can be at home raising my son and knowing that someone who loves him is caring for him. I am lucky to know that when work is done that more often than not my husband wants to be home with Braxton and I even if being at home means he is watching TV. I am blessed to have a wonderful father helping me raise my son. Kent is a wonderful man and I need to realize more how lucky I am to have found such a great man to add to my life. I appreciate all that he does for me. I truly am lucky!

Looks like you had a fun party. I know Tevya from college. I was roommates with his sister and we had a class together. Can you tell him hi from Stacey and remind him who I am if he doesn't remember me. How do you know him? Sounds like things are going well for you guys. We'll be in UT this summer maybe we'll have to stop by to say hi.
