why

I swear in life if I ever feel like I am getting ahead something happens to knock you back.  One step forward and three steps back right.  Ha ha.  I was going to pick up Brytlee from the neighbors house the other night and I just put Max on my lap.  I didn't notice that he had reached up and pushed the garage door button and it was half way down when I started backing up.  I caught the last panel on the door and messed it up really good.  Dang it.  I hate it when stuff like this happens.  There is no rewind button to push and I just wish so bad I could undo it.
I could tell Ryan was so mad at me but he held it together and was so nice about it.  I remember as a kid about 12 I had a party and was trying to impress my friends.  We decided we wanted to wash my sisters boyfriends truck and I thought I could just drive it onto the lawn.  It was a stick shift and I had never driven a stick before.  I got it started and it jumped right into the garage door.  I was so scared and thought I was dead meat.  I ran around cleaning the house and cleaning whatever I could to try and get me out of trouble.  I even called a few garage door places to see if I could talk them into come and fix them before my parents came home.  I remember telling my mom and she told me that I had to go and talk to my dad.  I don't know why that was so scary because my dad is the nicest person in the world.  But I think the thing that was the worst is that I always wanted to make my dad proud and impress him.  The last thing I wanted to do was tell him something bad.  I remember walking outside to go and talk to him and as soon as I saw him I just started balling my eyes out.  He just came over and gave me a huge hug and started laughing.  I was a little shocked and confused.  Then he started to tell me stories about when he was a kid and how he had ran his dad's tractor into a tree once and some other funny things that had happened to him.  He was so sweet and just amazing.  Instead of me telling him how sorry I was he was comforting me and telling me that it was ok.
I know that I am not near as good of a parent or as patient as he was and is.  I am so thankful to be married to a man that is just as good to me and is still patient with me.  I really did hit the jackpot when it comes to family and a husband.  I don't know what I ever did to deserve them all.
