More than just a penis (maybe?)

I knew Husband would be a good papa because he was great with the kids we know. He and I both had experiences growing up to know what kind of parents we don't want to be. As we prepared for parenthood we developed a parenting philosophy together. Since our son was born, Husband has been a great co-parent and partner. He's totally involved with the kid wrangling and housework.

I was ready to TFAS before Husband was. For awhile we considered being one-and-done but then I realized I really do see us with more than one kid when I think about our future family life, and after awhile Husband was on board, too.

Because if I had a daughter, I would want her to be with the type of man who is like my husband or if I had a son I would hope that he would grow up to the type of man that my husband is. My husband can talk to anyone about anything. He is very kind and generous and always considerate of other people's feelings even when people have taken him for granted and don't seem as appreciative of the things he's done for them... he still says he doesn't regret doing those things because he wants to be a nice a person and that he won't stop doing those things because despite their actions he still wants to be a nice person. Those are qualities that I struggle with but admire in him. I know he'll be a good dad.

Plus he picks up his shit and does laundry!

My husband is my hero. He's awesome at everything he does even if he doesn't think he is. He works a full time job. He is a Captain in the Marines Reserves. He is a full time dad. And he puts up with me. He is my kind of weird. We are completely different but it works. He is amazing with kids. He always was amazing with my nieces before our daughter was born and then he was completely wrapped around her little finger from the first moment. We even each other out. He keeps me sane. He is my voice of reason. He is very relaxed. Whereas I keep things organized and keep him on time to things. Not to mention I keep him on his toes. He's also funny except when he tries too hard.

Like I said, we are opposites but match each other perfectly. I can't imagine anyone else better for me. Nor could I think of a better father for our daughter and future children.

Great thread!!

Hmm..where do I start? I met my fiancé when I was 16, and immediately fell for him. He is such a fun-loving, caring, and good hearted person. His family is everything to him and he is there 100% when anyone needs him. He works hard, but always finds time to make me feel special. He was always great with kids and proved to me very early on that he would be an amazing father. I have always seen myself having babies with this man. Now, 6 years later, we are going to get married and start TTC. Although we're not perfect, and do our fair share of disagreeing, I love him with all my heart and I can't wait to (hopefully) have his babies!!

I love this thread because it really made me stop to think about how amazing he really is, and how lucky I am. I will admit, on some of the tough days I may need to be reminded of how good he makes me feel.

My DH is an amazing man. Watching him okay with our DS makes me fall for him all over again. He is kind, smart, sensitive, and has an amazing sense of humor. He loves me for me, crazy quirks and all. I also recently had surgery on my foot and I am in a cast for 4 more weeks. I know it is hard for him with work, going back to school, taking care of DS, and taking care of the house, but he does it all without complaining and makes sure everyone has what they need. He's the best and this TTC journey is bringing us even closer.
