I've written a lot about the cute little peanut on the way lately, but nothing about my amazing husband.  (And I don't know about you, but I kinda think he looks like a model in the picture up there.)

 

 

I don't even know where to start in explaining to you the kind of man he is.  (Is it bad to brag about your husband?)

 

Anyway, I will just start with a list of things that I have come to love and appreciate about him.  Things I have discovered since we've been married.  Well, I'm sure I saw hints of some of these things before we were even married.

 

• He makes dinner for us when I'm tired.
• He helps me do the dishes.
• Sometimes he even helps me cook.
• He is a really good communicator.
• He helps keep me calm.  A couple of my friends in high school used to call me "Spaz." Not a nickname I appreciated at all, but if I'm being honest, it was true.  I still tend to spaz out if I see a bug in our apartment, or I drop a glass bowl, or I spill something all over the floor.  At other times my temper will come out and Kwacha is just really good at nipping it and reminding me why I DON'T NEED TO FREAK OUT!  (Except he never yells at me.)
• He never yells at me.
• He. doesn't. snore. Seriously!  Read that again!  I used to joke about how if someone ever proposed to me, before responding I would ask if they snore.  When I was younger and our family went on vacation and had to share a hotel room, my dad would snore and I...would cry.  Literally.  I also hate wearing ear plugs.  Seriously, why is God so kind to me.
• He makes sure I eat correctly.  Which is important with ulcerative colitis and gestational diabetes.  I don't always like it at the time, but in the long run I'm very thankful.
• He's affectionate.
• He prays for our daughter.
• He always prays for family/friends at dinner.
• He insists I call him if I ever get home late at night so that he can meet me outside before I get out of my car.
• He thinks and cares about other people. 
• He likes match-making as much as I do.  ;)
• He'll watch shows and movies I like.  Including some chick flicks. 
• He's a leader.  He is faithful to make sure we read together.  Right now it's Proverbs. 
• He seeks after wisdom.
• He is wise!
• He thinks before he speaks and acts.
• He carries the grocery bags, or anything remotely heavy, for me.

Okay, this is even easier than I thought it would be.  It's just flowing.  So I'll stop there for now.  But I can always make another list!  ;)

 

I love you, Kwacha!
