the men in my life

First of all, yes, these are the shoes. My bro found them in Texas at Tylers...which is where I first saw them. This was the last pair and a half size smaller than I would have asked for, but they fit and they are Awesome!!!

I ran to my families house last week, Wednesday morning through Thursday morning and I did it for 1 reason. The men in my life. (this photo is of the fam.) Grandma, Linda, Mom, Dad, Fred and Josh.I have to start by saying that the men in my life consist of 4 people. First and foremost, my daddy! He is the kindest man I know and if there is one thing I will take forever with me is how to treat people.
So I went home, but Andrew didn't get to go. He is the second and current most important man in my life. Andrew is just as my dad, kind as can be. He sees the best in everyone and is quick to encourage and listen and slow to speak and become angry, in fact, I have never seen him angry, even though he used to have severe anger problems. Andrew is the best Husband ever. I have never felt "not good enough" with him. He is safe and he still takes risk...I love this man with all my life and will serve beside him for as long as we live...and he is really cute. The next man is my Brother, Josh. He and I didn't get along when we were kids, but when we hit the upper teens, we just clicked. I love my brother. We don't see eye to eye on everything, like music and movies and some other weird things, but when we are together we talk and laugh and really just enjoy the company of each other! And this brings me to the most recent addition to the men in my life. FRED! I love this little man. It is almost weird to me how much I love him. I am not sure if it is because I have no kids of my own, but I love him more than I thought it was possible. So I got to spend a short few hours with him, but it was worth the 8 hours of driving. Here are so photos that I can use to brag on just how dang cute he is.

It's amazing how much love you can have in your heart, isn't it? So many different kinds of love and overflowing sometimes - especially for those precious little babies. When you have your own, you'll have a whole new kind of love to add to it; and what a thrill that is! We're so blessed to have so many people to love!!

Ditto what Linda says....but add...
Just wait till you are a Grandma!
The first time you hear "grandma" come out of that drooling little mouth, you realize why you had kids in the first place!
