Being a stay at home mama isn't easy. I don't sit at home and eat chocolate. I don't watch TV all day (we don't even get TV stations). I don't go out for lunch everyday (we eat ham sandwiches and leftovers). BUT, I do get to spend everyday with Sophia and I would not want to trade that for anything. My house is cleaner than it's ever been. I am able to cook (which I love). My laundry is not overflowing out of the hamper. I feel very blessed that I am able to stay at home.
That being said, I know I don't express to Anthony how much I appreciate him working. I know I don't tell him enough how grateful I am that he works to provide for our family. I know there are some days that he would rather stay at home and hang with us. I know there are days when it's hard for him to go to work. But he does it. And I...I am SO thankful he does. So, ladies...when your man comes home from work tonight. Tell him. Tell him you appreciate what he does and you notice how hard he works.
And yes, it took a pinky injury for me to realize that I am not so good at expressing gratitude towards my husband. So, Anthony...I know you will read this and probably not comment, that's ok. Thank you for working hard for us. Thank you for allowing the Lord to use you at the post office for this season in our lives. Know that Sophia does miss you when you are gone and EVERY time she hears the car pull into the driveway she comes running to see you. Love you!
