Kristen is home...

Just talked to Kristen and she is in the Atlanta airport and about to be picked up by our friends Charlie and Nancy Harris. I miss her already. We had such a blast in England and Scotland. I can't wait to make some of those type memories with Eliza as well. In some ways I like that Kristen is sad to leave me, she cried in the airport, it makes me feel special and loved. In other ways it crushes my spirit to see her sad. Two more weeks I will be home. I am really glad that Kristen and I are that type of married couple who actually enjoys each other company. Sometimes she will laugh so hard at me for no real reason. She is something special.

I did read in a book called Babywise, yes Kristen I have started it, that the best thing a parent can do for their child to make them feel safe and secure is to love their spouse. A good marriage filled with love, warmth and laughter and putting your wife or husband first, not the kids, shows the children that all is secure and helps them feel a more secure part of the family. In no way am I a perfect husband, but I do think that loving Kristen is something that seems so natural to me.
So here's to my beautiful wife whose smile warms my heart and feeds my soul.
