My husband's publicist...

I read a post today on jillsavage.org and it made me think... Do I spend more time giving my husband good press or bad press? I have a really awesome partner in life, but sometimes I am not a great publicist for him. A publicist in the book world is someone who promotes a person's book. So today, I will be Ryan's publicist. Here are 50 things I love about him:
1. He loves Jesus.
2. He loves me just the way I am.
3. He loves our children.
4. He plays on the floor with the kids at the end of the day.
5. He does the laundry (almost all of it!).
6. He takes out the trash without me asking.
7. He works really hard.
8. He laughs at me.
9. He lets me laught at him.
10. He does the baths for the kids so I can take a few minutes to clean up the family room, or kitchen, or wherever the latest mess has happened.
11. He lets me have time for myself.
12. He is thoughtful.
13. He is patient with our children.
14. He cooks most of the meat at our house (I really hate to touch uncooked meat).
15. He is open to new ideas.
16. He supports me.
17. He takes the kids to my mom's on the days I have to be at work early.
18. He is an otter.
19. He is not afraid to change when change is needed.
20. He has a gift of fixing things.
21. He is steady.
22. He understands me.
23. He models being a man of God for Matthew.
24. He can handle puke and blood.
25. He is willing to live with less so our family can do more.
26. He is committed to us.
27. He takes time for us.
28. He will do anything I ask of him around the house.
29. He can tell when I am at the end of my rope and he steps in without a second thought.
30. He likes to shop with me.
31. He is a good leader.
32. He helps in the kitchen and is probably a better cook than me.
33. He has the best "concert" voice (you'll have to ask him to hear it)!
34. He gives me time away when I need it.
35. He has a heart for youth.
36. He is creative.
37. He has tons of energy.
38. He loves coffee as much as I do.

40. He can make almost anything.
41. He can read me.
42. He knows when to help and when to just be there.
43. He is proud of the work he does.
44. He loves spending time with family.
45. He has a great family who care for us.
46. He knows about things I have no clue about.
