I must brag for a moment.
Josiah loves me!
Even through his stress...losing his job, finding another, having to move (again), etc...he finds time to show me he loves me.
Yesterday he came home to chaos, which around here, is business as usual. I cooked dinner, we ate, the boyz cleaned up. I mentioned how exhausted I was from the day (school, grocery shopping, detailed the Yukon, Library, etc) and that a nice hot bath sounded so refreshing.
The problem? Our bathtub is filled with clippings of hair from giving the boyz haircuts. I did not have the energy to clean the tub to take a bath.
Oh-and our hot water heater does not even fill up the tub with enough hot water to make it even a warm bath.
So I was downstairs, going about the evenings business, when Josiah called me upstairs. I went into our dark room and he led me into the bathroom.....
...and there was a candle lit room with a *clean* bathtub filled to the brim with bubbles and HOT WATER. He had boiled 3 pots of water and filled the tub for me :) My book was laying on the side, ready for me to devour.
Ahhhh. The bliss.
As I soaked, Josiah put the kids to bed...another stress he took on alone just to help me.
All this to remind he that after 12 1/2 years of marriage, 5 kids, 3 states, countless jobs, many houses, stress and tears....he still loves me. :)

Wow Tiff! I have to say I am very jealous! You are a very lucky girl to have such a great man...really.
I know all about the hot water heater not filling the tub! Ours does the same thing!!! I get about half a tub of hot water...and that's it! I'm wondering what we're going to do with the labor tub. I suppose we're gonna be boiling water too!
Krystal,
We have boiled water for all our births/birthpools. Actually, we just keep at least one pot simmering all the time in case I need it...and it only takes one good size pot of water to really heat up the pool!
Good for you to brag on your man!! We've discussed this before...there are very few men like this in the world (thankfully I have one of them too :)) This was a good reminder not to take mine for granted.
Awww! That is soo sweet! Sounds like a scene from a movie.
You are blessed, Tiffany!
That is so sweet! What a special guy you have :)
