Bragging about Erik time

I have to tell everyone what a good husband I have and how proud of him I am. I give him a really hard time but he is really good to me and an excellent Dad. Over the past few weeks with crop he has taken over everything. I didn't need to worry about cooking, cleaning or the kids while he was home. Then Friday he took both kids brought all my things to the expo center and stayed and helped us. When he was done there he packed up the kids and ran and picked up a few more things for us. Then he made two cheesecakes for my crop committee to eat during the crop. Wait it goes on.... After my brief three minutes of fame on morning news he came in and said to my crop committee, "I have a sexy TV star around here somewhere that I need to give a kiss to her." After coming and taking me to lunch and helping periodically throughout the day so it wasn't that he sat at hom I came home exhausted. I got home my kitchen was clean he bought me a sweater I had been looking at and made me chocolate covered strawberries that he put a cute note on! I was so tired I started to cry and told him I was too tired to even eat them. He put me in bed and tucked me in! Then let me sleep off and on for two days. He even missed a superbowl party so that I could sleep.

All of that plus at work he beat the company record for customer surveys not by just a little bit but by a full percentage point and increased all the numbers for his area! When he took over this job this store was last in the district and near the bottom of the company. He is now in charge and it topping the company and district charts. Not too bad for 10 weeks.

Okay I know this is getting long. But one more thing I need to brag about. He has lost weight. The doctor told him about a year ago that if he didn't change he would be dead in 10 to 15 years. I wasn't too happy about that. It took him a while for that to hit him. When it finally hit he has made a complete 180. He has lost 40 pounds and all of his high numbers are back in line. If he keeps it up he maybe able to go off of the diabetes meds!

Thank you Erik! I love you and am so proud of you!
