  • Love Muffin

    Today I was feeling kinda blue because hubby needed to travel for a preaching engagement at a Mission’s service. The kids and I were unable to travel this time. I try not to complain when he travels so much but I have to admit at times it bothers me. Sometimes I just miss being a normal family all together going to one church consistently. Really it’s not that big of a deal but at times I do miss my love when we cannot worship together. This was one of those days…

    So, what’s that have to do with a muffin? This morning I woke up not feeling so well with a headache and really had no desire to cook a thing for the kids nevermind for myself. No worries…the kids got fed. After awhile I then heard a joyful chorus, “Mama! Papa wanted us to tell you he left you one muffin.” This was HIS muffin for breakfast but he left it for ME?! Now that is love! My husband is the most loving, giving person on earth! He always puts himself last!! He always makes sure I have enough
    “easy” foods on hand to help me with my long day/s when he travels. Then he goes over the top and leaves me HIS muffin! You have no idea how much joy that one lemon poppy seed muffin brought to my day. The smile has yet to fade from my face as I am reminded of his love for me. To say the least…I cannot wait for my love muffin to walk in the door this evening!!! 

    He brings me so much JOY!!

  • That is really sweet!!!!! :)

  • Awww, that just really made me smile! 

    My hubby is the same way.  It overwhelms me at times, makes me feel guilty at times, but mostly, just makes me feel really, really grateful!

    Thanks for sharing,

  • precious and endearing… and just in time for valentines ;)

  • That is so sweet! And I can REALLY relate to this “Today I was feeling kinda blue because hubby needed to travel for a preaching engagement at a Mission’s service.

    Fr. is struggling with the his travels right now as a matter of fact. He has to be in Detroit for the next three days and can’t decide what to do, he knows I don’t like to be alone so he is going through all the options….it’s hard…we just like to be a normal family too. The boys aren’t secure if we aren’t all home the miss Baba’ saying the prayers and at dinner time it isn’t complete withe Baba’ not at the table…I certainly know how you feel.  It is the story of our life. My dh keeps asking me if I can “handle” everything if he is just away on Tuesday and I said, it is not that I can’t handle things while he is away. I can handle anything you put in front of me it is just that I don’t like to be without him and either do the children…that is just plain old love.

  • I always call my son, my love muffin–he’s always full of hugs for everyone. We all need a love muffin in our lives.
