I wanted to pay homage to a wonderful man that I met over 11 years ago, and married almost 11 years ago. He's been a father for a little over 8 years now. And he's been a wonderful one at that!
I will never forget the look on his face as he watched his firstborn come into the world or when he held him for the first time. It was the first time that I've ever seen tears in his eyes. I wondered/worried how he'd feel about the new little guy. His face said it all. He loved him instantly.
He loves being a dad. He knows and understands the importance of having a family. What would this life be without it?
He changes diapers, he cleans kitchens, he takes out the kitchen garbage EVERY SINGLE DAY without me having to say anything.
He throws the kids in the air over and over, even when I know his arms are tired.
He never criticizes me for the things that I'm not doing.
He is an excellent provider, a wonderful spiritual leader, and a great example in our home.
And to top it all off, HE LOVES ME!
I am truly one lucky girl!

What a great post!!
It's the garbage thing that's really amazing. You are a lucky girl.
This is so nice! Did Robert see it?
geeze, you make him sound like such a catch! :) haha, i know he's great. Those are some really cute pictures Stace.
To answer your question EmmaLee, NO he didn't (and probably won't) see it because he doesn't read this blog!! :)
What a great tribute!
I think he's a great husband and father too. This post made me cry.
Robert is awesome! Maybe he is too busy taking out the trash to read blogs. Don't feel too bad he doesn't read either Ally's or my blog either.
What!? Mike and Ally have blogs?!! Stacy-it was a sweet post btw!!!
Mike is lying on your blog? I'm shocked.
I can't believe that you have been married for almost 11 years! Way to go Robert and Stacy!
What a nice tribute! And just think - he doesn't keep mice in your fridge! :-)
You must be a pretty good wife to have inspired Robert to do all those great things. I have always loved my little brother and am glad he found you and that you are so willing to put up with him. :)
