My Favourite Man

SOOOOO ...apparently my last post could have been seen as not having the most positive things being spoken of my husband. As that was not my intention I want to write a blog completely about how much I love him!! I thought that a blog uncovering some of the humorous situations of having a husband that does things completely differently than me...I think mostly due to gender ...but from a woman's perspective might be fun but I also have lots of wonderful moments with my husband. From the very beginning I knew that Andrew was perfect for me because he is such a chatterbox! Being one myself you can see how we could just talk for hours and hours. Andrew is SO unique...i remember on our first date he played a question game and asked me all different sorts of questions...not the awkward where are you from? how many people in your family? types of questions but questions such as what do you see yourself doing and who do you see yourself being in 5 years? I knew from that moment that he was something special. One of Andrews most coveted traits is his generosity, he is always offering to pay or offering to share what he has... I cannot believe how much I am going to change over the course of our marriage...I am not a sharer. Andrew loves being in nature! While I like it in the hot sun he likes it any way it comes. He loves Waterton especially ..he wants to live there one day. Andrew LOVES spending time with me...it is my love language so I oblige completely! Sometimes we get stuck watching 24 for hours because we just love being in each others presence...one night we played angry birds for so long that a little message came up saying...devoted player you have been on for 3 hrs. Andrew is so complimentary of me..he is always telling me how nice I look even when I look gross. He always brags about me to other people and I secretly love it. I don't care so much that the other people think I am great but I love that I have a man that is confident enough to say how lucky he is...that is rare...definitely. As much as this could be taken as negative..I say it in the most positive way...Andrew is a little bit girlie... he loves heart to hearts and he is so sensitive to me. I have definitely seen my husband cry more then he has seen me cry... also a rarity...who doesn't love a manly man that wears his emotions on his sleeve! Andrew is great with fixing things! He is always over at someone's house helping them fix something. He is such a great new member of the Hendry family... though it took him a while to warm up to us he sure has got comfortable with the crazyness of my family. Andrew always tries to fulfill my needs...he is such a great provider and I know he just wants what is best for us. He is so ambitious and has so many wonderful dreams. I am such a pessimist and Andrew is always there to point out the bright side and I love that about him. He is such a good priesthood holder and I love that comfort. He always makes sure we have prayer before bed and I'm so glad that he has such initiative. I think the best thing about Andrew is that he is SO much like my Grandpa Lyons. It is actually crazy how similar they are...My mother and I were just discussing it. They have SUCH hearts of GOLD. My husband is all I could have asked for and more :) Babe... this post is for you! I hope you always know that I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. I would do anything for you and I want the world to know that too! Our biggest lesson we have learned being married is...don't judge another till you have walked in their shoes and I know that is so true!
I love you Andrew Maclean <3
