Beauty, Intelligence, Integrity and Kindness these are just some word that I use to describe my hero. Mother, Lover, Wife and Friend, these are some of the titles she has been known to go by. I met Krista about 5 years ago when I had nothing but a rather large ego and even bigger dreams. Yet some how, I caught her eye and after enough childish ice breakers, she actually agreed to go out with me. Today we are married with two beautiful daughters. Lucky they take after their mother completely. Krista has an amazing gift of compassion, she thinks a lot and over thinks even more. she doesn't rest, even when her body resting her mind is still going. In the passed year she received two degrees from home in accounting, while simitaniously managing our two children and getting them ready to start school. She coupons and I mean extreme couponing, she has been known to make money off of it. All the while training for her 5k races, learning how to cook and just picking up crochet, because she thinks anyone can just pick up some needles and make amazing stuffed animals and blankets. Along with all the regular things we all do as people, she does it times four and keeps our family on track throughout our day to day life. I don't know how she can find enough hours in the day. Truthfully she blows me away, I leave for 10 to 12 hours a day and the house never stops. Progression and growth, something is always happening. My kids blow me away on the daily with their knowledge of things I just assume they know nothing about, I'd ask where they learned it all but I already know. I told Krista when we met that I felt like she was the realist person I've ever met, she just laughed and probably thought it was just another line but it's true. She is so graceful, she moves through life with this ease about everything and always has this calm about her. Now I'm not saying she perfect, on our journey together I've seen her fall, but I've never seen anything stop her, her wheels never stop turning. Yeah, we argue at times, but she has never lost faith in me and some how communicates with me like no one else I've ever met. For this and so many more reasons, Krista Brianna is my hero, my inspiration, my motivation & my salvation. She challenges me, she broke down my childish ego and allowed me to become greater then I would have ever been without her. Where she gets the patience I don't know, that's still a Virtue I'm learning but she has it naturally. I could go on for days about how she is the best choice I ever made in life and the reason I get up everyday, but it just wouldn't reflect how amazing this woman is. I know she was sent to be an inspiration to the world, and more than anyone me. I knew the day I met Krista, I found something amazing, I may have not understood it fully then and I probably never will but she completes me and has rescued me from myself countless times. I truly love and appreciate her in so many ways and was looking for a way to scream it to the world. That's when I saw an advertisement for your site on the news the other day and after checking it out, stumbled on the everyday hero section.
Please help me honor my beautiful wife Krista Brianna!
