My Husband Is Awesome… Even When He’s Not

My Husband Is Awesome, Even When He’s Not40-Reasons-To-Be-Thankful
 Its so easy in life to focus on negative things, get down, or be upset about little stuff. And then we momentarily forget how much our spouse/significant other does for us and how awesome they really are even if we are not feeling that way in the moment. I am so thankful for Kevin and blessed to call him my husband, partner, and best friend.

 

1. He’s leads our little family
2. He constantly tries to pursue Christ
3. He encourages me daily
4. He totally gets me in all my weirdness
5. He helps me not be OCD
6. He “plays” with me and makes life not boring
7. He works hard
8. He’s funny
9. He helps me around the house when I need it most
10. He’s dependable
11. He’s trustworthy
12. He is organized {we would have big problems if he wasn’t :)}
13. He is a good decision maker
14. He is smart
15. He still gives me butterflies
16. He plans for our future
17. He is committed to our marriage
18. He watches my girl shows {sometimes}
19. He provides for us
20. He compliments me
21. He does little things like making the bed and filling up water bottles to show he cares
22. He is honest
23. He has a forgiving heart
24. He takes out the trash
25. He constantly makes me laugh
26. He puts me first
27. He appreciates me
28. He values me
29. He is respectful
30. He loves life
31. He is not a worrier
32. He has a great smile {i love it}
33. He protects me
34. He knows me better than anyone
35. He is kind
36. He’s a great friend
37. He picked me.
38. He’s my biggest fan
39. I can’t get enough of him
and, most of all..
40. He loves me unconditionally and I know no one could love me like he does

    This is really cute! I made a list like this for my husband just before we got married for his birthday. (I lucked out and he made one back 🙂 ) But it’s an excellent way to let someone know you appreciate them. 🙂
    I actually just found your blog through Emily’s tweet! Love your layout!

    I love this. It’s perfect. Brilliant to like, print it out and keep it somewhere like in your Bible, so on bad days or during fights, you can take it out and remind yourself. LOVE it. xo
