The Husband

So, the husband's name is Mark. He is the best husband I could've ever asked for. He's way out of my league and I don't deserve him! He is the oldest of 8 kids -- yes, I said 8 kids -- and he's good at everything he does (and that is no exaggeration either!) He even plays the organ with the foot pedals! He was his ward organist all through high school. He also plays sports, and he's a wicked good singer. Not to mention the fact that he actually prefers me in sweats and without make up on.  I mean, come on, the guy's a dream! But I'm not going to sit here and lie, there is one thing he's really bad at: Mario Kart on n64. That's right peeps, he's horrible. But I'm teaching him some tricks so he's slowly starting to get better. We only play the mushroom cup and occasionally Wario Stadium until he gets mad at me for cheating and jumping the wall.  Don't worry, we're working on it. He even beats me every now and then.

Mark treats me like gold. He is serving me constantly. If he's closer to something I need, I always ask him to get it. and he does. every time. I'm lazy, and I'm trying to do better. But how can I not be lazy when I have someone like Mark who is always helping, and so willing to too? His mom said that he's always been that way. He was always the first one to run outside and help her unload the groceries as soon as she pulled into the garage. How can somebody be so attentive? He balances me out nicely.

But there's so many other sides to Mark, and one of my favorites has got to be his sense of humor. We are always laughing at the dumbest things. Trust me, half of the things aren't even that funny! And his laugh is infectious. Plus, he can tease me and poke fun at me. It may sound strange, but I need that in a relationship. It's way more fun that way.

Since having Laikyn, I realized how lucky I really am. He is the best father out there and is always wanting to spend time with our dysfunctional, little family. I know my daughter is going to be well taken care of with him as the protector of our home. He's such a solid guy. Everyone, this is the husband.
