Husband Tag

Ok, so I wasn't officially tagged. I stole this idea from Heather's blog. I loved it, and I had to have some more of it. Plus my husband really deserves more appreciation than he gets & this is a good opportunity for me to brag a bit about him.

6. Does he have a nickname for you? Uh, not really. Babe.

7. What is his favorite color? He has four. Black, white, gray & blue.

17. What do you admire the most about him? Wow. Soooo much to choose from. He tries hard at everything he does. He works hard at work, Church and home, but he also goes to school and works hard at his classes. I really admire that he is the same person no matter where he is. He's a great example of integrity.

18. Do you think he will read this? Probably-- to make sure I didn't say anything embarrassing.


Next week is kind of a monumentous time for us for two reasons. Waf is becoming a journeyman at work (instead of an apprentice. The difference? Apprentices work on the crews. Journeymen RUN crews. So this also comes with a nice fat raise, which is nice.)

The other reason is that Waf belongs to a union, and he was asked by the union to be the "shop steward." (Basically, he'll be the middle man between the shop & the union-- making sure the shop is treating workers right). When he journey's out, he will also be named the "shop steward."

Funny side note~ when he first told me about the "shop steward" thing, I asked if that was a big deal. He said "well, I'll be the first one." and I said "at the shop?" and he said "in the history of the Union." and I said "OH! So it IS a big deal!"

I'm really proud of my husband for working so hard, and I'm happy he's finally being appreciated for what he has done! He is so dedicated to whatever he puts his mind too, and I'm really grateful for all that he does!
