My Husband

I realized that I haven't done a post about my husband before. On my other blog I did a post about us but not just about him...So...

Derek Neal is the love of my life. They say you just know when you have found the right one, and that is so true. I know I was only 18 when I met him, but I was no where near wanting to get married until that man cam into my life. He is amazing. He's hit rough patches along the way, but I've never stopped loving him...EVER! He is a wonderful father and our boys absolutely adore him.

I was in the car earlier, and a song came on the radio....I've heard this song so many times before, but this time, this song stood out to me. You see here recently, Derek has become even more amazing than he has ever been...we've had late night talks about everything under the sun...it's like we are falling in love all over again...and I LOVE IT! So back to this song...it completely follows one of the talks we have had recently...almost like the artist was spying on our convo;) so here's the song that I feel describes my husband to a T:

"Family Man"

I've been working as a temp
At the local factory
I hope they hire me on full time
I've got shoes to buy
and a mouth to feed.

I drive a buy here, pay here truck
It ain't new, but it is for me
It ain't much but it fires right up
and get me from A to B

What puts the dirt underneath my nails
What keeps the calluses on my hands
Family man

They're a world my world revolves around
My sacred piece of solid ground
The flesh and bone that gives me strength to stand
They are a fire in my drivin on
The drive behind my comin home
The livin, breathin, reason that I am
A family man

There's dirty shirts to wash
Dishes in the sink to do
And there's how many times
Does 17 go into 52
There's bedtime prayers to pray
Sleep tights and I love you's
And then there's a pair of eyes
I get to lose myself into

What keeps me keepin the faith
What makes me believe I can
Family man

They're a world my world revolves around
My sacred piece of solid ground
The flesh and bone that gives me strength to stand
They are a fire in my drivin on
The drive behind my comin home
The livin, breathin, reason that I am
A family man

There's a fire in my drivin on
The drive behind my comin home
The livin, breathin, reason that I am
A family man

A family man
There you have it! I am madly in love with my husband and our family. I hope I tell you that enough baby...you are the best!
