The one who saved me.

So, i typically talk about the kids or something funny going on or our crazy lives or whatever but this post is dedicated to my Husband of 4 months.

Justin and I met online 4 1/2 years ago. We were in a chat room and were both just bored really and wanted someone to peak our interest and entertain each other. We found each other. We talked online for hours and would schedule "online date" in which we would both get online and only talk to each other- we did this for nearly 2 months. We would stay online until the weee hours of the morning. Just learning about each other and enjoying each others online company. After about 2 months on the computer we talked on the phone. We also did this until the wee hours of the morning or about 2 weeks. We finally met in person on September 24, 2005. We have been together ever since. We had a rough patch but it only honestly made us stronger- Justin said it would too and i didn't believe him.

Justin is my hero, he rescued me from an endless battle with myself. I was lost and floating around in a daze most of the time. i had two little boys from a previously terrible relationship and i was convinced that no one would ever date me, much less me with 2 little boys. - But i was content with that, i had just settled in to the idea that i would have man friends but probably never get married.

I was wrong, i tried pushing Justin away and it never really worked- obviously. he saw through me- and me trying to be all hard core- "I don't need anyone". he was there at the drop of the hat EVERYTIME i or the boys needed him. He brought me orange juice to work just because i asked- this actually was a test, i didnt really care about the OJ just wanted to see if he would do it- and he did, time and time again. He would bring the boys "yogurt juice" after he got off of work at 11:00 at night and would lay in the floor with them and watch football. he was the man i had always hoped for but didnt think existed at least not for me.

he never looked down on me because of my past- mistakes or otherwise. Lord only knows the checkered past that i have. Good, Bad, and indifferent - he loved hearing every story i could possibly tell him about myself and how i changed from who i was to who i am now.

He took over the Father role to the boys. And has embraced it. Justin is all they have ever known as a father. Excuse me- a Daddy, there is a huge difference in the two.

He always called when he said he would, he was at my house when he said he would be. He kept his promises and treated me like a Queen, not a Princess, a Queen. ----I need to rephrase some of this- i am talking about him like past tense- he still does all of these things and much much more.

Anyways, Justin works so hard everyday for us. He is husband, father, son, friend, caretaker, disciplinarian, teacher, lawn guy, dishwasher, cook, maid, the love of my life. He cooks dinner probably 2 nights a week. He does the laundry 95% of the time. If the dishes are in the sink and i just didn't feel like doing them, he doesn't complain- he does them. ( He may be a Robot ) He doesn't complain about ANYTHING. He goes to work everyday and does his job and tries to get ahead for our family so that I can stay home one day with our children. When this day does come and i am able to stay at home, i want to make sure that all his efforts are not in vain.


So to sum it up for you....My husband is Better than Yours!

I love you Judd, you are truely the man I prayed for.
