My Very Own Super-Hero

(I love this goofy picture of Barry! I found the shirt at Target for $5.)

My husband is awesome. I'm sure you all know that already. I want to share a little story with you. On Sunday, we went as a family to choir practice at church. For entertainment (for Alton) Barry grabbed a handful of little dinosaurs. He set them on the top of the car while he strapped Evy in her car seat. I'm sure you can guess what happened next. Yeah, so on our way down the highway, they started flying off the roof. (At first I was a little scared, I didn't know what the crazy sound was, then Barry informed me that it was Alton's dinos flying off the roof.) If I had been the one behind the wheel, I would have kept on driving so I wouldn't be late for choir. But Barry, being the awesome and considerate Dad that he is, pulled over on the side of the road. He first rescued what dinos were left on the roof. Then, he ran down the street and found each remaining toy that had flown off! How cool is that?!

Such a small thing, but it meant a lot to me. And if Alton had fully understood what happened, I know it would mean a lot to him too. So often, it's the little things that really add up to something big! I love my husband so much and feel so blessed that he chose me (forever, no less)! It's so reassuring to know that my children have an amazing Dad, too. He's the coolest!
