This might seem like a dumb thing to some people, but my husbands job is a HUGE blessing. I guess I view it in my top 5 because we have been self employed for almost our entire married lives. We women thrive on stability, and to be living a feast or famine lifestyle for 12 years and raising 5 kids has been VERY stressful. We always made things work, we were always blessed when things were all said and done, but it was a hard life to live. Having been on the "dark side" for so long really really makes me appreciate things like awesome health insurance, federal retirement, (aside from social security, which we all know we arent' getting anyway), life insurance, and a paycheck rolling in every other friday....well if you have those things these days you are blessed blessed blessed. If you have always had those things.....I hate you!!! NO just kidding!!!! But really, I am SO appreciative that Mark was able to get this career and use the hard working skills he has to finally be rewarded for it! For so long he worked himself into the ground and we always struggled, now its overtime, baby!!
