My husband is a deep guy. I'm talking over my head deep. Which I suppose isn't really hard to do. But he can pull a phrase out of the Bible or a thought out of his head, mull it over for a while and spit out this deep truth and understanding that just kinda blows this silly girl away. And he's so darn humble and wise and charismatic that you just feel convicted standing next to him.
And then he married me.
I, on the other hand, have to work really hard to be serious. I'm a sucker for making people laugh and I tend to only feel comfortable with "deep" when it pertains to the proportions of my post pregnancy belly button or the appropriate serving size of chocolate pudding.
You know God has a sense of humor pairing the two of us up.
So today my husband was sharing another one of his deep thoughts with me and I listened and realized he needs to share this stuff with other people because...
He comes up with some fascinating thoughts and ideas that are just wasted on little ole goofy me and....
After listening to it for the past 12 years he's starting to notice my glossy eyed smile doesn't really mean that I'm moved to tears by his amazing insight, I'm just frustrated because there's NO PUNCHLINE!
So I said to him, "Babe, you've got all this great stuff to say and it's such a waste to keep it all to yourself. You really need to start a blog and get your stuff out there. See what other people have to think about it."
To which he replied in his usual manner of silence.
(Hello.....this is me speaking....please grunt or do something in response!!!)
I didn't think anything of it and went along my merry way. But to my suprise, I got a phone call while I was out and about and it was him asking me how to set up a blog on homeschoolblogger. He actually DID hear what I had to say.
So, please go visit my hubby at his new blog home. Please make him feel welcomed and pass him along to any other homeschoolblogger guys so he knows he's not the only one with testosterone floating around in this part of the blogosphere.
