Gratitude Day 1

I am gonna try doing gratitude days everyday this month. (stole Leaner's idea) Hopefully it will make this month better.
I am grateful for my husband. He has been home the last 5 days because of our anniversary but he has been a big help with the kids. Especially our little monster who has decided to test all his boundaries. Garrett also helped with our sick girls today and took me to the school to pick up Katie. He always helps me when I ask. Even if he worked a 12 hr shift he will still come home and cook dinner or hold Dougie so I can. I am grateful for all the things he does for me but also for our family.

6 yrs ago

6 years ago today I was laying in a hospital bed barely hanging on. I had rolled my car numerous times and had brain swelling and a broken spine in 3 places. I remember laying in the hospital and looking up to see my handsome angel standing over me telling me "You can't leave me, I love you too much already." He promised to be there no matter what and to help me.
We were suppose to spend 4 days together to get to know each other again after 8 years being apart. Well we spent those 4 days in the hospital with me learning to walk again then went back to Ely,NV to spend 4 more days together.
It was a very scarey time for me and he stood there and held my hand through it all. 6 years later he is still holding my hand through it all. I am glad he was there to help me get through it and he hasn't left my side since. I am so grateful for my angel. I know I have taken alot for granted lately with him. We do have rough times, but he has stood by my side for them all and has continued to love me and not let me give up.
6 yrs ago I was not a very happy person with myself or anyone around me I still occasionally have days like that but when I look into his eyes I know it will all be okay.
I honestly believe had he not been there that day I would have given up. He is the love of my life and my soul mate. I do not know what I would do without him in my life.
