My mate is wonderful because....

Good luck with the mower!!!

this weekend I am out of town with my daughters and 5 of my grandkids, The oldest is haveing her 6th Birthday party tomorrow. My Man when I left town was at my old house that He thought would be a good buy for me working. This house is now totally gutted and the back addition that at one time housed the kitchen and bathroom is torn off. We are getting ready to put a new addition which will be the kitchen dining room, Bathroom and utility room. Also upstairs will add a 10 X 16 walkin closit. I left him working in the back yard where we had a huge old half dead tree pushed down today. He cut up as much as he could. Will bring in the wood splitter to get the rest down to moveable size. Plus had to rent a sump pump because the old sistren is where we are digging for the foundation and had to sucked dry, Tomorrow the backhoe is coming in and digging out the foundation. He is doing this while I am away playing.

MY mate is wonderful because....there are so many wonderful things about him, I can't write them all here. Because it would make you SICK.

My mate is wonderful because when he met me I was dating some other guy and I didnt think of him that way. He was my friend and I even asked him for advice when my relationship was in the toilet, the advice was wonderful a worked for a while, he could have told me things to break us up and just tell me to dump the "guy" and go out with him. You have to understand that Alan is the most patient person most of the time. He knew that one day we would be together. He went off to school and I broke up with whats his name. I caught up with his mom who gave me his address and phone number, we went on a date and have been together ever since that was 1997. I found out later that he would come to the place I worked ,Chik fil A just to see me. I remember he ordered the same thing EVERY time. Chicken salad sandwich and a large Dr. Pepper. He only came to Chik fil A if I worked.
Now to the real reason he is so wonderful. My mother is crazy, literally. She had ways of controlling me for my whole life with the things she said and acted. WAY to much to put in here and you dont want me boring you with all of it anyway. My mother kicked me out on my 18th birthday over a stupid misunderstanding and for the next 2 days went totally nuts. I mean nuts, calling the police and telling them that I hit her in the face and broke her glasses blaming Alan for stealing ect... Mom and I had gotten into an altercation and I did hit her to protect my self, but nowhere near her face...( the police didnt believe her anyway, ther was no brusing or anything...) I went to live with his family who treated me more like a real daughter than my own mother did my whold life. Then my mother threw a FIT infront of my 423 other graduates at my high school graduation, literally screaming at me in front of my fellow graduates and their families becuse I hugged Alan's mom first. Alan came and stood beside me and was my rock. He has always been. Anyway, Alan was only 18 years old, he had his whole life ahead of him their was NO reason for him to stay with a 18 year old girl and her psychotic mother. We were married in 2002 and have 3 beautiful children, ask Peggy. Alan, now will come home from teaching and cook and clean, he calls me everyday from work to tell me he loves me and usually tell me not to worry about dinner he will take care of it. He does most of the dishes and laundry if I dont get to it, without complaint. He says he likes to clean because it relaxes him! Can you believe it, realxes him!!!
He is also such a wonderful father! All of his kids adore him, espically our daughter, OMG! He is right not wrestling on the floor with his sons and is having more fun than them. He will come home after a long day at work and tell me go call a friend and go somewhere, he and the kids are going to have fun. I come back a couple of hours later and they are all so exhausted that they are all practically asleep on Alan's lap.
We can sit for hours talking or just sit and stare at each other and we both are the two most happy people in the world.

My guy is amazing because he puts up with all my bullsh*t, gives me anything I want plus some, has a great sense of humor and makes me laugh, can impersonate many different voices and that makes me laugh too, has incredible patience and endurance, works hard to provide wonderful things for everyone, loves his kids, loves me, eats anything I put in front of him with NEVER a complaint, puts up with my dogs, gives me beautiful jewelry even though I never ask for it, is wonderful with my son, never loses his temper, even when I lose mine and ..well there's more, but after writing this, I think I'll go hang out with him. It is Saturday night for christ's sake!
