(While I was at Girls Camp, Ryan took the week off of work to take care of the kids. Texts can be such a fun, real record of our life, I thought it would be fun to include some of them from that week.)

J: Please do not forget to get a sleeping pad from Laura.

R: I’m carpooling with the YW presd’cy. Hope it’s not awkward.
J: Why? And you have room for my pad, right?
R; Way to keep focused on MY issue.

J: Hey! You got my pad?
J: And my big green blanket. I was cold last night.
J: Am I obnoxious?

R: Good run. Pretty morning. Got a lot of you in my head. Trying to get past it.
R: I’m down 3 lbs since Sat. What do you put in my food?!

(R was at the podiatrist when I got home)
J: I just got home and found this:
J: Is this how you take care of our children? One ripping down street signs and the other with a blood infection?
J: Attempting repairs:
R: Been there. Done that. He did it two days ago, too.
R: In the waiting room:
R; F: “I yike dese comics, Dad.”
J: Hey! My flowers are dead!
R: What?! They weren’t yesterday!
R: Are you exaggerating?
R: Um, speaking of dead, you might want to feed that fish.
J: The flowers look pretty bad. The rest of the house looks pretty incredible, so I forgive you.
Jul 29, 2011 11:45 AM
J: Hey! Tell Greg (the podiatrist, our friend) to hurry it up! I miss you!!

I love the texting log!! Zach killed my flowers when I went to Vegas with girlfriends. The house was so clean that I forgave him too. :)
my favorite part is how your spiritual experience was totally glossed over by his need to complain.
he totally understands housewifery.
also, i want to point out that i wasn't stealing street signs until i was well into high school. you guys are seriously in trouble.
I love how he said, "Got a lot of you in my head. Trying to get past it." That man is crazy about you...and that is wonderful.
...and I love how you wanted to have the podiatrist to hurry up because you missed him.
So lovely.
I have to say, Ryan did a pretty good job on the hair. I love that he remembered to accessorize.
For a dad who wants his daughter to have a wonderful marriage, this is one of my favorite posts. In warms my heart to hear, see and feel the love you two have for each other.
Awesome! And I love the comment from your dad. :)
Now that I have an iphone Mark and I are entering the arena of spousal texting. We are not quite as clever/funny as you (yet.)
