The Other Boy

I meant to write this post last week on our anniversary but we were plagued with illness so I didn't get much of anything done. This post is about the other boy in my life who is hardly mentioned on the blog. Hopefully you've guessed that it's Mondo. :-) Here's a list of why I keep him around....

-He still finds me attractive after 14 years.

-He is an awesome father. He thinks of things that don't occur to me when the kids are crazy...like singing silly songs that make the kids crack up.

-He loves my family like they are his own.

-He understands the importance of providing for his family.

-He loves the minivan!

-He enjoys our coffee time in the mornings.

-After 7 years he still wants to go to bed at the same time I do.

-He puts up with my dogs even though he hates them...I mean hates them.

-He always asks me where I want to go eat.

-He sacrifcies blood and guts movies to watch chick flicks with me...wait...that's not a sacrifice, he likes them!

-He's happy to consider "date night" watching stuff on the DVR and eating chips and queso.

-He eats at Olive Garden even though he doesn't like pasta because he knows I love it.


The list could go on and on so I'll just stop now. Love you, Mondie!

How sweet! Can I add one? He brings you (and all your nurse-friends) milkshakes when we need a snack at the hospital!!

What a gem of a husband. He is always so polite & kind to everyone, we are so blessed to have him in our family. Thank you Wendy, for putting him in your blog.
