Dear Braden, How do I love thee? Let me count the ways


1) Thanks for painting my kitchen Lemon Sorbet. Even though you hate it, and you say that you feel like you live on the sun, I really love it and I think you'll like it once my vision is complete.

2) Thanks for letting me spend money pretty much freely this weekend in preparation of our family celebration dinner we had last night for Baby #4. I think everyone had a good time, and most people like the yellow walls and my new curtains. Those who didn't kept their mouths shut.

3) Thanks for being excited about this new baby, even though I know you really wanted to stick with 3.

4) Thanks for getting into remodeling mode and working on furniture for the kitchen (even though I know you are just hoping it will all tone down the lemon-ness of the room). And I think its funny now that its painted you want to buy new cabinets, get granite counter tops, install crown moulding at the ceiling, put in wood floors, and take out the peninsula in the kitchen to add extra space to the room.

5) And thanks for watching the kids this morning during my OB appointment so I didn't have to wrestle 3 screaming children during my pelvic exam.
