My dad owns an electrical company that he still does work out of. In it's prime dad has a crew of guys, but now that my dad is 70 (and should retire but loves what he does), it is just him. He has a few maintenance contracts, one including the condo building he lives at. 2 nights ago they had a power surge and 70+ ballast needed to be changed. Joel had an early Friday at work since it is the long weekend. My dad called him not knowing he was off early and asked if Joel wanted to work Friday night since it was too much work for one man and without hesitation my husband agreed.
My family has always been very important to me, so when I started dating Joel it was a relief to know they already liked him. (my parents knew Joel for years before I did) Today Joel is also helping my dad with a job before we head out to Blue Lake. 3 years ago I began dating Joel on September Long weekend. (sort of for those that actually know our story) Before we were married we celebrated this as our anniversary. For the first one I made Joel a book filled with quotes and pictures of our growing love. Last year I honestly can not remember what we did, but I was pregnant so I deserve a break. :) This year we are headed out to Blue Lake with my in laws to celebrate with Joel's aunt and uncle and friends of the family.
I am often reminded of how much I love Joel with little things he does for me or our family and this weekend was no exception.
When two hearts are committed
To share Life's ebb and flow,
As days become a lifetime,
The Bond of Love will grow.
