I would just like to use this platform to tell everyone what an amazing man my husband is. Seriously. He is the best support. He convinces me that I really do want to be in grad school, helps me with papers and projects, takes care of things around the house, and lately he's been taking care of me while I'm sick. I couldn't ask for anyone better. Last night, he helped me to craft a pretty nice statement for my fellowship application and was patient during the 15 times I had to stop and blow my nose - this was after he had gone out and bought me medicine and sunflowers. He was nice to me during the night, even though I know my tossing and turning and nose blowing was bothering him. He is just the best. Sometimes I really take it for granted and I don't thank him enough or express my gratitude enough. But, on mornings like this one, when I wake up and realize that he did the dishes last night (while I was doped up on cold medicine and stuck reading) I am overcome by how blessed I am. I'm such a jerk sometimes because i don't even notice all the amazing things he does. So, today I'm noticing - and telling everyone how wonderful he is. If I ever do get around to finishing grad school, at least half the credit goes to Josh.
