Thank you note to my husband.

Dear Justin,
You know exactly what is best for our family! I was such a mess last week wondering around the house aimlessly. I wanted to get so much done and had no energy to do any of it. I felt like a rug was pulled out from under my feet. When you insisted that we go away for the weekend and take the kids camping, I was so annoyed. Camping?!?! We are so new to the world of camping. I didn’t want to pack up anything and definitely didn’t want to deal with the mess when we got home. But you insisted that we needed to do something fun one last time before you got in the fields and the school year craziness got in full swing. You took care of all of the details and made sure the only thing I had to do was pack my own clothes. You stocked the refrigerator and cabinets and had everything loaded up. You set the stage for a family weekend and made certain I had nothing to complain about. When we got home everyone helped with the unpacking and we were done in record time. And guess what???? It was exactly what I needed. I was forced to relax. I was forced to reflect on all I am blessed with instead of the inconveniences and disappointments the week brought. You said all of the right things and helped restore the happiness that I was feeling just a week before. Thank you for knowing exactly what I needed! I love you! ~Heather
