I have to brag on Steven for a change.

For those of you who know me, you know I am not one to talk sappy talk about my wonderful husband.....but you also know how strongly I feel about this man. He is one in a million, works his fingers to the bone in order for me to stay home with our daughter, on top of dropping everything to help a friend in need and of course loving us unconditionally. While I could go on and on about him, today's post is to talk about what he did yesterday that was so far above and beyond normal standards! After a long, really stressful day at work he still found time to rescue Brooke and me! I know how melodramactic I am making this sound, and it is for a reason.....

Yesterday, Brooke and I decided to go to Walmart to do some Christmas/grocery shopping before the cold front hit (that has left us in the 30's all day). When we went TO the store it was 60 degrees and sunny, yet when Steven called to find out where we were he told me it looked a tad bit different outside. Apparently the storm hit while we were in Walmart, along with a wall of dust (normal for Lubbock), and winds gusting up to 60 miles an hour. He drove out of his way (if you know how much he dislikes Walmart, that makes the story even sweeter), parked right up front and rescued us from having to deal with the weather. He grabbed Brooke, fastened her snuggly in the warm truck, then proceeded to help me with the groceries and the basket. At first I thought he was joking about the intensity of the storm, but after he drove me to the car I knew he was serious when I almost could not even open the door wide enough to get in due to the wind! I know this might not sound like as big of a deal as it was to us....but imagine this.....me trying to get Brooke in the car out of the wind all while holding on to a shopping cart full of groceries in 60 mph wind...?! I think our groceries would have hit Slide Road long before I did!

Anyway, Brooke and I are very blessed to have such a wonderful man in our lives. He is a terrific husband and the best Daddy he could be. I love him more and more every day. Thank you Steven for all you do for us!
