Who Has an AWESOME Hubby?

[daycarediva]

I have to say this, with everything that happened today, my dh was AWESOME. He came home from work, picked his kids up from 'daycare', washed the dishes, and then as I was sending out emails to my registrar, answering phone calls and typing up letters, he took our kids out to play, made dinner, put laundry in, and gave them baths AND BROUGHT ME A GLASS OF WINE.

He totally 'gets' how hard this job can be some days, and NEVER says ANYTHING about the house, or his picking up the slack- that he always does. Most days he shakes his head and says "I don't know how you do it!"

I think he deserves a pat on the back. lovethis

I think he deserves more than a pat on the back...wink wink...especially if you want him to do it again........hahah

My husband rocks too...he did all the laundry today!!!

[littlemissmuffet]

I agree with daycare, he deserves some lovin' tonight hehe!

I also have a super helpful, selfless and caring husband who appreciates all the hard work I put into our business home and relationship. So glad to hear others here have that great support at home too lovethis

It is so great when you have a hubby who helps out and understands.

Mine is the bestest and spoils me! He works shift work so is home often during the day so he does a lot for me. He helps me ALL the time, does dishes and cleans the kitchen almost every day that he is home, puts my ds and other 3 SA on the bus in the am, watches the dcks while they play outside, even when he gets home from work at 7 pm he vacuums almost every night, folds and puts away laundry, pours me a bath in the evening, rubs my back for over an hour several times a week............. I can just go on and on and on. He is so great!

He is actually still hard at work right now at almost 8 pm working on building me a new room so that I can get the pnps and highchairs and baby gates and toys out of my living area. He has been working on this for over a month now and he had to sacrifice and give up a huge part of his garage to make this room for me as it was the only place we could put it.

He also watched the daycare children today for 2 hours as he often does. Today I took my son to the doctors office and then for lunch. The dcks and my dcks parents all love him. He is also an amazing dad to our 9 year old son.

I know I am bragging but I love my man so much!!

I just wish I were not so darn exhausted all of the time and could do more for him.

What a great husband!! lovethis

Having a helpful husband makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD! happyface Mine is Mr. Mom. He runs the business with me, drives our child almost everywhere, deals with our adopted childs issues (he is pretty closed off to women), runs errands, pays the bills, etc.
He just leaves me with dealing with the business logistics, doing some of the cleaning in our home (which tends to be more of a family effort), and laundry. I get to relax every evening and I greatly appreciate that since I get so overstimulated.

I have a great hubby too! I have been struggling with a lot of prelabor and discomfort at 35 weeks. Today DH came home and played with the kids, got them dinner, read them books, and is now making cookies with the older two so I get a break! he's the best

These posts are making me so depressed !
My husband is nothing like this!
Today I started Daycare at 6:30am while DH slept. I had 8 kids that needed to be out the door for the bus by 7:45. DH got up at 7:10..showered and left at 7:30 for work. No help with is own 3 kids whatsoever.
He then came home, shoved his supper into his face (Which took me over an hour to make with a house full of kids..), got his gun and left for hunting. By 7pm he still had not returned to help with driving DD to her activity, cleaning the kitchen from supper, making lunches for the next day, bathing kids, homework, teaching catechism to other DD...etc.
When I called him at 7:15 to ask where he was and why he wasn't home, he gave me a major attitude. Came home and then asked me why I always had to call him when he was out. (Which is about 3 nights a week...)
I feel like a single mom running a daycare most days.
He has no appreciation whatsoever for what I do.
When I try to explain how hard it is, he rolls his eyes and says that all I ever do is complain. Holy crap, they are HIS kids too!!
I wouldn't have to complain so much if I had a little help once in awhile.
Hug your good men tightly tonight ladies. They deserve it. Trust me when I tell you that they are not all like that. You gals are very lucky.

I prayed long and hard for my husband. When I met him I thought, "He isn't my type!" HA! :: God never does things according to my plans. I was a new Christian, he had been a Christian for 4 years and we met in our Church's college ministry preparing for a mission trip. We got married 1 year and 1 month later. He was worth the wait. happyface

I have the best husband ever!! He is semi-retired and works 3 days a week. When he comes home, he always brings me something-usually a candy bar or a doughnut. When I have a hard day, he is the first to tell me to fix something quick for dinner or suggests we go out. When I cook, he always washes dishes, and he makes the bed and runs the vacuum every day, as well as washing all of the daycare dishes.

He is always reminding me to use my backbone and backs me 100% when I do. My dcks love him. I only have one eating table food right now-a 2 year old. She knows that when he isn't here, it means he will bring her a doughnut when he gets home, and she isn't above reminding him when he calls. ::

When he gets home, she grabs a book and makes a beeline for him to read to her. She calls the living room "his nickname's room". The baby will sit in his bouncy seat and laugh at him until he looks up and talks to him. Baby doesn't act that way for me--just Hubby. Kids and dogs flock to him.

I could go on and on, but I don't want to make the rest of you jealous.

SoccerMom- are we married to the same guy?? ::

I have an awesome hubby!

He's currently unemployed so he does have some time on his hands. However, he's been working on freelance projects most of the day (some of last night) in the basement or at the company he's doing the freelance for. He helps out with the daycare when he can. Last week, he worked super hard. He did a huge pile of laundry, cleaned our room, did the dishes, cooked every night, and took care of dd so that I could rest.

Today, he finished up his work as soon as he could and came up to help me because I was having some pregnancy pains. I had a dentist appointment, and he watched the daycare kids. I'm having a wisdom tooth taken out tomorrow, and he's going to watch the kids for me.

He's currently taking care of dd, so I could rest in our room.

Hugs to you-

Why do you put up with this? How about a sit down talk it out,-

My reply would have been- Why are you always out? It would be nice if you could help out with the family responsibilities and pick up a little slack here.

I think woman get dumped on like this because they allow it. Make some changes for the better for yourself-

Hugs to you-
