So this week on Instagram a couple of women on my friends list who are mom's were doing these "20 Random Facts" about themselves. It was so neat to learn just a little glimpse of them. So I decided to play along and listed the "20 random facts" that came to my mind as well about myself. Well tonight my hubby just did a number on my heart (which he usually does), but feeling extra in love with him and since I enjoyed doing the 20 random facts....I wanted to list some random facts about my hubby that I love and why. Just a little tribute to him...so here it goes.
1. He gets me like no one else ever has and completely knows me better than myself. Sometimes this is completely weird because it's like he is telepathic or something. But he some how manages to read my mind in most situations and because he is more logical than I am it has been a life saver when trying to make a decision.
2. I love how he is so confident, content, so comfortable in his skin and sure of himself. It took me such a long time to get to this place, and will admit I struggle a lot still with confidence. But, being his wife and being a mother has made me so much more if not almost completely comfortable and alive in my own skin and watching him exude with confidence daily is so sexy and I admire that so much in him.
3. He always puts his family's needs first. It doesn't matter who wants something done, what it is to be done, whether friends, chores, other relatives, work...etc. He always puts our needs first. I absolutely love that about him.
4. He is like a walking encyclopedia. It's like he knows a least a little bit of something about everything! He doesn't watch that much sport center or at least from what I see around the house and its like when he is around other males...he can spout off sports statistics like its his job...and there are many other things he knows randomly about. It's like the coolest thing ever...but at the same time can be quite annoying...because we I finally have some neat info to share...he pretty much majority of the times already knows about it.
5. He is so techy and such an electronic nerd! I never thought I'd marry (well never thought I'd get married period, but to a nerd...lol never) but he is one. He can build a computer from scratch knows more about electronics than I think the Geek Squad does at Best Buy. He has schooled our cell phone company on their own equipment and can quote number parts off the top of his head. Sexy? Oh yes!
6. He is so well rounded! Even though he is a complete techy, computer nerd and electronic freak he is so well rounded! So well rounded that he can work on cars. Could build a house with the amount of hardware and tools he owns in the garage. Goes off roading in his Jeep (which by the way was what sent me in love with him). Owns guns and shoots them extremely well. Loves to paintball and play flag football. Owns a pressure washer. Will spend a whole weekend out perfecting our yard. He can decorate. Can divide and multiply extremely large numbers with out using a calculator. Can cook some mean Italian food. Cleans the house sometimes for me. Omgeee the list goes on. I could prob write a book report so I will stop there.
7. Is so friendly. The man could make friends with a drill sergeant. He just has this way about him that any and everyone completely warms up to him and by the end of the night he has them cracking up!
8. Even though he hates coffee...he never fails to surprise me with a cup in the morning sometimes, or when the Keurig pods are on sale he makes sure he swings by the store on the way home form work to snag me some...and whenever we are out somewhere on an afternoon of running errands on the weekend he always ask if I want to go to Starbucks.
9. He is so giving. He will randomly surprise me with flowers, tickets, a card...something cool of of Groupon or pick up items like the Keurig pods mentioned above or my favorite ice cream from the store...just because.
10. He loves his son...and this totally melts my heart to see a Daddy love on their child the way he does and I just know miss Natalie is in a run for her money when she gets in Daddy's arms...but then again he might be too. :)
11. He is a home body. I never was...until we got married. He loves being at home. He'd rather watch a movie on TV than go to the movies at the theater. He'd rather go pick out some high end foods at the super market with a bottle of nice wine and cook up a gourmet meal at home rather than go out to an upscale restaurant for a date night. Of course this took some getting use to because I use to love going out to random places and was always on the go...but I have learned to enjoy the simple things...and being at home and doing things in our home together instead of always being out! So now I absolutely love being at home and never thought I'd be a home body...but I am. Our home is my comfort zone, safe haven and our little dwelling as a family!
12. He supports me in whatever dreams or goals I have. I own my own little jewelry business on the side...which since having John has fell by the waist side a bit, but I am completely fine with that, but he surprised me with taking me to get my business license one day and opened a little business account for me at work. I wanted to go to school to get my AA degree when we first got married and he made sure I had the money for books, coffee when I studied and a new computer to work from. I felt called to stay home with John and he stepped out on faith with me. There are many other things that I am truly thankful for that he has supported me in...but this could take all night.
13. He loves the Lord and seeks His guidance. There are times where I freak out first before praying. Times where I want to do my own thing instead of seeking God's will...and he will always remind me of that. I pray he never stops having a heart bent towards the Lord and that he will encourage, and direct our children the same way he has me in this area.
14. He is so gracious and patient with me. Hence #13 above. I tend to over analyze, over think, worry and since I am pregnant my hormones are flying all over the place, but he is none the less patient and so gracious with me.
15. He is a leader not a follower. He does his own thing. He marches to his own beat. He doesn't care whatever one else does and never follows the crowd. He is a man of conviction. It's easy to get wrapped up in the newest craze, latest trend etc. But not this guy. Yea....it's hot!
16. He has a servants heart. A heart of gold. Will do anything for anyone. Loves helping others and making sure people have what they need. Always.
17. He puts me in my place (hence #13 and 14) and doesn't have a problem with putting others in their place in a loving way of course. If someone is out of line, he tells them. If someone is wrong in their thinking...he points them to the correct way and it's like people understand and listen to him. I think its a gift.
18. He talks with authority. When he speaks people listen (#17) because he has confidence and authority in his voice. It amazes me. I can't do that...I crack up under pressure and laugh or chuckle when I'm nervous. But he keeps his cool...remains calm and makes people stop what their doing and listen to him. I swany I think one day God is going to do great things (well He already has) but I mean truly big and great things through Nick. He has so many gifts and areas in his personality and life and he just excels in and walks in authority in. I can see him being the President. Like seriously. With his knowledge, the amount of authority when he speaks, and the way he carries himself...I very well could see that happening.
19. He is so funny! He makes me laugh...I mean really laugh. Like gut wrenching laughing to where you are crying, and your belly is sore for days. Because he knows me so well...he knows what things will make me die laughing...send me over the roof for weeks cracking up and things that will only cause a chuckle.
20. He is so handsome. His features are so profound and strong. I could sit here for hours and go over all his parts from his jet black hair, to his eyes and his hands...and well things I just absolutely love about him...but will stop there and save this number for my viewing pleasure only. But, he is so so handsome and lets just leave it at that.
So these are the first 20 random things that come to mind that I love about my hubby! He is not perfect of course...but he is mine. Now I just need to remember when we get into an argument or if we are having an off moment in our marriage that I come back to this and re read this list and celebrate the wonderful man I know he is!
