Over the summer, we decided that it was time for me to return to the classroom. I have been back for a few weeks and I have really liked it. There is only one reason for me to be able to go back and teach in a regular school--Brian.I am so lucky that he has been so supportive of my going back to work. He is absolutely amazing!!! He has taken over the duties at home and I don't have to think about what we will eat for dinner, when I will clean the bathroom, and I wonder if the kids have gotten off to school okay. Brian has made it so that I can go to work and completely focus on what I am supposed to be doing rather than worrying about our house and the little boys. I am so grateful for his willingness to allow me to work on my career while he is taking care of everything else.
I love him for making me breakfast each morning.
I love him for getting my car filled with gas and making sure I'll be safe traveling everyday.
I love him for getting my lunch out and ready to go.
I love him for taking Tom to school each day.
I love him for staying with Charlie every day and putting up with his issues.
I love him for going to the store and making dinner for our family each night.
I love him for watching Brianna's volleyball games, Pete's and David's football games, and Tom's and Charlie's races.
I love him for taking care of Relief Society issues while I'm not at home.
I love him for letting me nap most days.
And most of all I love him! because without him our family would stop! He's the best!
I didn't intend for this to be an ode to Brian, but our life wouldn't function without him--for that, I am grateful.

Thank you for loving Brian Rachel, he definitely deserves it and is a very great person, that would then make you pretty special I believe, because he loves you...I am sooo happy for you two and am glad that the kids have two loving parents,

Rachel, you know what it is like to love a child. So it certainly makes me so very happy to know how much you love my child. (and you will find out that your child is ALWAYS your child)
Also, I'm happy that you are really enjoying being back in the classroom.
Anonymous is me in case you didn't guess.
