This is not Brandi, but her manly husband. I decided to Post on her blog to let you know what Brandi has been up to. For some reason, she feels that life has not been blog worthy as of late.
I want you to know of the sacrifice she is making on behalf of our family. Brandi has been watching 3 other kids plus our two for the past few months. She is waking up at 6:30 AM for the first drop off and does not have them all gone until 6:00 Pm, at which point she is still mother to her own. Brandi is also 7 moths pregnant and as you may know does not have the best pregnancies. I know how hard it has been for her to change 15-20 diapers a day while trying to potty train our Maya and a 3 year old. She has been left at home all day and stuck at home without a car as I have had to take it to work. Brandi is managing to still make Christmas presents, make dinner, and make our house feel like a home.
I have seen the tremendous physical, emotional, and spiritual toll it has taken on her and it is humbling. For you see, Brandi is doing this all for me.
I decided at age 29 to become a Police officer, cutting our income in half. I decided to quit my cozy job working out of the home where I was with my family much of the day. I decided to join a profession where the stress levels are high and the divorce rate ever higher. Brandi let me do this because she could see that I wasn't happy with what I was doing. Brandi has given up so much of her own time and sanity for me, and I Love her so much for it.
I have the greatest wife in the world and the sacrifices she is making for our family mean so much to me.
So baby, your life may seem boring and mundane at this moment, but I will always be in your debt for your overwhelming support for me. I love you and will do everything in my power to make the rest of our lives as happy and enjoyable as ever.
Thanks for letting me boast about my wife. It had been a while since she has had time to update her blog which is another sacrifice she is making.
I Love you!

Could that be any sweeter... Brandi you are amazing and you have an amazing hubby to match.
Very sweet...it's moments like this that in the long run make life even sweeter!!!
What a great tribute Eric, I think you are both amazing!
Ahhh Eric, I always knew you were a good guy! Hang in there Brandi, I can't imagine 15 - 20 diapers a day but there's got to be some humorous times with that that right? Last conference there was a talk (don't remember who gave it) but she said her mantra was "I Can Do Hard Things" I always remember that when I'm in a a rough patch of life - it's a good one!
I always knew Brandi was amazing, but that's so cute to hear your husband brag about all of the great things you are doing!
Very Sweet! I know even more about you and your relationship. What love. Keep it up, I admire you both!
I am so impressed with you Eric, I don't think I would ever catch my husband bragging about me. Keep up the good work Brandi. It will all be worth it in the end. You have a great family!
