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 ...

There are two kinds of people: Part One

This topic has been on my mind for quite a few years, and I always tell my ultra hip (yeah right) self, that I should write about it. So finally, after this last revelation that, yes, there are two kinds of people in this world, I needed to get it off my chest. There are two kinds of people in this world. "But Megan?" you quickly rebut, "No there's not! There are so many kinds of people in this world. Short people, tall people, loud people, introverted people, French people, people who like food, people who are allergic to grass, dog people, cat people, this list is endless." And to you I say, "Well of course." But  here's the deal. When it comes down to it. We are all, but one of two kinds of people. And I'll kindly, yet firmly, break it down for y'all. There are two kinds of people in this world. And you WILL fall under one of these categories. Are you ready? Here, I'll set the scene. You are walking down the sidewalk....

A picture, a moment.

My husband and I went to Mexico last February. This was our last night there. Or was it? We had not gone on a vacation in 10 years! This photo is unique and amazing in so many ways. I had gotten a new camera, and all vacation, I would mess around with new settings. What time of day was this? Looks like a sunset right? It's not! It was a sunrise! I  had some strange setting, that I have not been able to replicate. But it made this look like our last night there, but it was our last morning. I awoke early so I could be on the beach when the sun came up.If I could keep a memory that included sense of smell, feeling, sound, and sight, it would be this, wrapped with a bow. I was the only one out there in the early hours, which was amazing in and of itself. I took a lot of other shots by the water, and a little while later when I was heading back, I turned around, and took a shot off the upper patio of the resort. And this is what I got. It is my favorite picture...
