On May 30th PookieBear and I celebrated TEN wonderful years of marriage. In honor of hitting the decade mark, here are ten differences between us 1. He loves to have music playing. If he has 5 plates and 5 forks to load into the dishwasher, he starts a song. I can drive thirty minutes by myself before I realize that I've been riding in silence 2. Similarly, he has rhythm. He taps to any music he hears (my beloved show, Shark Tank, is actually the worst because of the daunting background music they play while people pitch their ideas to the Sharks) Despite my years at New Life, I can't sing and clap at the same time. Every time I think I've got it, he tells me that I'm clapping on the the wrong beatDANGIT 3. He loves paying in cash, specfically coins. He's the guy that scrounges up 79 cents in nickels and pennies from his car to pay for a Polar Pop at the gas station.

Much love on this Father's Day to the man who taught me how to repent, that the moon is connected to the ocean tides, that it's okay to change jobs and the importance of having a "pre-pool" to wash your feet off before getting into the actual pool. Thanks for always lending a listening ear, teaching me how to ride a bike but not drive a stick shift (hey, we tried...) and for attending countless games, concerts, performances, etc x 4 And to the teenage summer camp volunteer-turned-husband-turned Daddy to my three girls who is teaching them how to repent, supports us both monetarily and emotionally (WE ARE A FRAGILE BUNCH OVER HERE) and shares his love of two minute "how to" food tutorials with his children in abundance. We're thankful for you and if all you really want in life is 5 minutes alone every morning to get ready without one of us bothering you, I hope we can do that for your more often. We love you "times a million"

When your sister shows up to the zoo on Memorial Day and you MATCH photo cred: Caris! When your parents watch your children for two nights and you spend the night before you leave writing a goodbye note and crying When you think you're going to the water park with your big sisters, but your dad just put a puddle jumper on you to make you feel better   When you're making Sunday lunch to host people after church and you're all FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT AND AMEN, PRAISE HIM until you find out that the toddler colored all over the bunk bed with a red crayon (zoom in, the picture doesn't do it justice and this is only 1/3 of it), the older sister didn't tell you until it was all over, and you get as mad as a doggone hornet
