Sappy Love Post

I have been feeling extra blessed lately. I have a beautiful place to live, a new reliable car to drive, a fantastic job with wonderful co-workers, and I have the best family a girl could ask for. It has been such a blessing for me that we moved back to Rexburg so my baby girl could be taken care of by my mom and my mother in law. I would not work if I couldn't leave my baby with family. I already feel guilty enough. But I know she's in great hands so it relieves a sliver of stress. But the person I should be thanking the most is my husband. {insert sappy love song music here} He has truly been my anchor and my biggest supporter. He has seen me through Hygiene school, pregnancy, birth, and now my figuring out how to be a good mom and still go to work phase. I'll be the first to admit that I am VERY dramatic and I have my moments of insecurities. Just this past week I've been super busy with work and extra emotional. I felt like a horrible mother leaving my girl every morning for work. My house is a disaster, the clothes are not folded. I haven't cooked a meal in two weeks. Our fridge and cupboards are bare. But by the time I get home, the only thing I want to do is snuggle my baby. I just look around and feel so overwhelmed at the mess and disaster surrounding. I look over at Mitch who was helping with the dishes or starting the laundry and I feel like the worst wife ever. So, once again, bring on my dramatic water works. Mitch came over, gave me a huge hug and showered me with compliments and kisses. All was right in my world. I had my precious girl in my arms and my amazing husbands arms around me. He still loves me through every breakdown and every tear. He even packed up my baby girl yesterday and drove clear to Driggs just to put a smile on my face and a kiss on my cheek. I felt like a million bucks walking back into work. Everyone commented, "he must really love you if he drove all that way just for an hour lunch". And I couldn't help but agree and be filled with so much gratitude and love for that handsome man of mine. Even though I feel like a bad mom and wife and all my little insecurities, I honestly couldn't be any happier. I'm the luckiest girl to have Mitch as my husband. I couldn't survive life without him. And once again, what did we ever do without our little ray of sunshine in our house? So.blessed.
