Bragging Rights
Can I please brag for just a minute? My husband. I don't know where to start. I feel like this is the busiest we have ever been. Between traveling, house work, yard work, family, Antons job, making sure we have time for our little family....we feel swamped. We keep saying, "well after such and such, things will slow down". It hasn't happened thus far, but I sure hope it does. So, where am I getting at with all this? With Antons schedule being all over the map, he still manages to go over to our elderly neighbors and ask them if there is anything he can do to help them. He doesn't have the time...but he makes the time. I am SO grateful to have a husband who knows the true meaning of service. He is always trying to do something for someone. Whether it is shoveling walks, driving in a snow storm to go make sure a certain someones driveway is clear, cutting down trees, taking our older neighbors to go get TV's or trees, telling me when I bake cookies or something to take half of them over to someone, asking my parents what he can do for them, going over to new neighbors moving in who he barely knows and asking if they need help with anything. He amazes me. He barely has time for himself...waking up at 6:30 to head into work and coming home at 6:00 at night. But that's just it...the man is always thinking of what he can do for someone else, rather than himself. And he never complains. Last night we were over helping some neighbors and we come inside and I say "Anton thank you so much for always being willing to help. I really appreciate it". His response, "Oh, I am happy to. I love the feeling of knowing I just helped someone out". What a guy. That's one of the many reasons I love him. He is such a wonderful example to me. And between the craziness going on in our lives...he still manages make me and Lilly his number one priority. Love you Anton!

I have to agree--he's awesome. Your yard looks incredible, by the way. Great job, you two!
Kudos to Anton. What a great husband. Craig and I were admiring your yard on a walk the other day. Hopefully ours will look like yours one day.
You definitely have bragging rights miss! What a guy :)
