Day 1: My Husband

Starting 21 days of gratitude, 1 topic, 5 specific things. We want to me more intentional about our gratitude, and I want to record it.

Day 1: My husband.

1. I am so grateful I have a husband who is also my best friend. He is the first person I think of when I want to share anything. He listens to my crazy ideas, offers advice when I need it, and knows just when to let me have my way or have some space. I love that he knows me so well.

2. I love that Mike is a dreamer. When my feet are firmly on the ground (and sometimes my head is in the sand), he's still dreaming about ways to grow as a person, in his career, and how it would benefit our family. Even when I don't want to support ANOTHER idea, he's still dreaming up ways to make it successful. He reminds me to keep an open mind and believe anything can happen.

3. I am grateful that Mike is my biggest supporter. Even in times I fail as a wife, and don't support him the way I should, whenever I have an idea or something I want to do, he's the first one to encourage me to go for it. I want to be more like that, and I'm grateful I have his example always to follow.

4. I am grateful that he makes us laugh. Both Mila and I love his sense of humor, his silly jokes, and his willingness to look silly/crazy/absurd to make us laugh.

5. I am grateful that he's willing to do anything that needs to be done. From walking the dog, to doing dishes, I am so lucky to have someone who is willing to pick up the slack and do what needs to be done when I am tired, lazy, or just can't get off the couch. He forgives my lack of cooking ability, and so many other things.

I am so grateful to have a partner in life and love.
I can't imagine life any other way.
