Above and Beyond

 This Mr. Stannix of mine sure does a great job of keeping me happy. Not only does he work hard during the week, but he puts in the extra effort on the weekend to make our family time special. Over the last few weeks he has spent a lot of time doing little things that make me happy. He was able to take time to join me at my midwife appointment this week and pick me up a new washing machine (which I love so far). This morning I woke with Finley asleep on my arm. When Joseph came to our bedside bright and early begging for breakfast, Daddy got up and gave him something to eat.

When Daddy is home we start our mornings with a family walk. It's always busy, but so fun to be all together!

He makes sure to spend some one on one time with each of them playing baseball, running an errand, or reading a book. Today he took Camilla to get her hair cut, and she was just tickled! These little moments mean so much to each of them. He has painted, hung pictures, done dishes, and taken care of most of the weekend cooking. When he's home to BBQ, dinners are easy!  I have really appreciated his extra effort. In the evening he surprised me with my favorite treats and we cozied up to a favorite show. I am feeling extra grateful for this husband of mine these days. I love that he's a team player and makes up for where I lack. We are sure lucky to have him!
