Sometimes life gets so busy that Matt will come home from the end of the work day, I will give him a peck on the check and run off to either change Cadi's diaper, give her a bath, start dinner or hand her off to Matt.
Yesterday was one of those days that I had to hand her off to Matt. I'm going on day #4 of dealing with a sick baby all. day. long. She's been clingy, whiney, fussy, and generally miserable. I can't blame her one bit, poor thing, but it's exhausting to deal with. Combine that with not being able to go anywhere, as I don't want any other kids to catch her cold, and the two of us are downright miserable. Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a little bit, and it hasn't been all bad all the time this past week, but yesterday was definitely a tough day.
So when Mr. Paradee got home from work last night and offered to do bath and bedtime, I fell in love with him a little bit more. And he said the magic words over and over again - "What can I do for you? How can I help you feel less stressed out?" That was pretty much all I needed. Well....that and the fact that he insisted that we order take away from my favorite Thai place.
So, even though some days it feels like we are extras in the movie Groundhog Day, and I sometimes forget to tell you, Mr. Paradee....I love you. I appreciate you. I couldn't do this without you. Thank you.

Wow! Thanks babe...that was really, really sweet. We make a pretty good team, huh? ('Mr.Paradee' kinda has a nice ring to it too by the way)
Love you back so much...
xooxooxoxoxo
That was a really nice blog... sometimes it is just the little things that they do that really do make you fall in love all over again...
Why I love my husband? Because he always lets me have the big couch, so I can stretch out while he sits on the love seat. I know it sounds silly, but it is just something that I love that he does for me.
I love Matti too ! Reading about Matti always makes me say.. "ah..."
You are a lucky girl Jenny Benny !
That's so sweet. I know I've never met you, but you guys are just the cutest couple!
Why do I love Drew? Because he makes me smile/laugh.
