Why I love this man...my husband... a wonderful Father.


So for starters, I obviously am very much in love with my husband, Mr. Tom Bergman. From the day we met, we were inseperable. In our first year of dating, we were together everyday. He asked me to marry him a year to the date that we met (metAugust 29, 2001, engaged Aug. 29, 2002), and we were married 4 months and about 13 days later!
But anyway, this is about how wonderful of a father he is! He is absolutely in love with each one of his children. And the part I love about it, is that you can see in their eyes, that they know their daddy loves them as well. They adore him! Right now, Halloran is the most attached to him, and she just squeals with delight when he gets home from work. I'm telling you, even if the man steps out of the room for more than 5 minutes, then walks back in, she emits the same frequency of joy in seeing him, as she would if she hasn't seen him all day! Unbelieveable!
When he is home, he IS home. He is dad, husband and friend to us all.
The more I write about it, the more I tear up, because I know how real his love for us is. He is truly amazing! Do you know, that in the 8 years we've known eachother, we have had about 5 big fights. We have our small ones, as everyone does, you know about this and that, and why do you do this, and I wish you would do this, and why do you have to be so loud....LOL!
He's always thinking of new things he can be teaching the kids, and they are also one of the big reasons why Tom showed interest in finding a church for us to go to, and then, oops, he found the love of Jesus along the way! Which in turn, has made him and even more amazing person, husband, father and friend!
He is so helpful, caring, thoughtful, loving, HILARIOUS, handsome, smart, inventive, totally annoying sometimes ;), and my best friend. I don't know what I would do without him. I am so glad God saw fit to bring us together. God knew exactly what I wanted. And top of my list, was always a wonderful father.
And he is.
A wonderful father.
You can see it in each one of our children, it's because he loves them, and they love him.
I hope everyone has a Happy Father's Day!

ummmm...does he have a brother? ha ha ha. Wow Megs, that was so touching and beautifully written! I always hear wives brag about their husbands...it is such a gift to not only them, but an encouragement for readers (listeners) to do the same for others.

I meant to say "I always (LOVE TO) hear wives brag..." Not, "I always hear wives brag..." :) Oops.

I love when wives brag about their husbands! :)

There are two kinds of people: Part Two - The non-movers

Coffee cup in one hand, veggie/fruit smoothie in the other. No seriously, that's what I have on each side of me as I write. I'm smiling because of how funny this is, as it seems to also relate to this conundrum of a topic before us. There are two kinds of people, and there are definitely two kinds of beverages.  My caffeinated beverage on my left brings me a one sided joy that I cannot even begin to detail. I love my coffee. And I really do think it loves me back. At least for a while. As I peer out of the corner of my eye to the right, I see the greenish grainy drink to my right. Today the fennel seeds in it do not make it seem as dirty  I mean, like I just gathered them from the dirt without rinsing and sprinkled them in there kind of dirty. Maybe it was the splash of OJ I decided to add to it this morning. Now, I know that this drink loves me. It is good for many aspects of my life. Health, energy, sustenance, power. But I do not enjoy it as much. When I make my coffee

Still here...Day Two.

Well, I still miss my kids horribly. Especially this morning when I heard that Shelby was up alot during the night. She has not been up in the middle of the night in 3 weeks, and it made me feel guilty for leaving her. I felt and feel, like I should be home with them. I know the woman who is watching them, that if she hears even the slightest little peep out of the kids would go rushing in to their room. I really don't want Shelby to get used to someone picking her up in the middle of the night for little rustles and sighs. But maybe I am just anxious, and maybe it is not really that big of a deal. Maybe I should just enjoy my time with my thoughts, my books and my husband. But honestly, I am anxious because I feel like the can't live with out me (don't laugh, besides I know it's over dramatic:)), I haven't even attempted to pick up one of my books, and my husband is driving me nuts because it does not bother him one bit that we are 3 hours away from our little bund

Who did we welcome home TODAY????

Shelby Capri Bergman 6 lbs. 5 oz. , 19.5 inches long May 30th, 2008 10:52 pm I just want you all to know that everything went picture perfect. She's beautiful, she's healthy and she's very content. I don't have a ton of pictures yet, my mom took pictures during delivery and I took some today when we got home, but since we don't have internet at home now, it will be slow coming! I had my membranes stripped at 9:45 am on Friday. Afterwards, Tom and I went to Walmart, Applebees's, my sister's classroom to help move some stuff (I supervised... I was a little sore), and then home. I took a nap and Tom started getting ready for supper. His 4 hour long, grilled ribs...and that is how the story begins! So we keep joking that I am going to go during his first trial run with the ribs. This starts at around 3:30 pm. Then, we run out of propane and start all over a
