{*Ode to my Hubby*}

I'm posting this late, but better late than never.

I just wanted to give a quick shout out to my husband. He is a phenomenal man. A diamond in the rough. He is a quiet leader, a gentle giant, and a true follower of God. I love him so much! He has helped me create 4 beautiful children, who I love more than life it's self. He devotes his life to making sure we are cared for. His children just adore and idolize him. They think he is "so cool!" and "so strong". It's amazing the light they get in their eyes when he comes through the door every evening. He is working so hard at work right now, he also just started going back to school, and he's the young men's president at church. His plate is FULL needless to say, but despite all of that and as tired as he always is, he always makes time for his kiddos. He reads the kids a story every night up in their beds, and he's never too tired to wrestle with the boys. I love you honey, I'm grateful for all you are and all you do for our family! Happy Fathers Day!

Also, when I asked him what he wanted for fathers day dinner, his reply was a "grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwich". How non-high maintenance is he? If any of you have not tried this, you have to! It's something we only eat about twice a year, cause as you might guess, it's not the healthiest thing to eat, but it's sure good! You basically make your normal pb&j sandwich, but then you slather the outside with butter and then grill it in the skillet like a grilled cheese sandwich! The jelly and peanut butter get all hot and gooey! It's sinfully good! Thanks grandpa Steve for the idea!

Yep, you got a GooD one there! I have observed the man at Church and I appreciate him! We have some tremendous priesthood holders in our Ward...and most of them have wives that are amazing women. He's got one of 'em!

You go, Darren! Happy Father's Day to you. We'll have to try the sandwiches sometime.
