Don't read if you won't want to hear me brag

I have a good husband.

There are many things I could say about why he is such a great man. I could gush about all sorts of lovey dovey things that make him wonderful but instead I am going to share just a few stories .

1. Last August he and I were in Seattle walking around the Space Needle. We were passing by an ATM where a lady was getting money out and 10-15 feet behind her was a fellow watching her, hood pulled up, hands in his baggy pockets and basically looking sketchy. I'm sorry, we totally stereotyped this guy and were afraid that we he was trying to rob the woman at the ATM. I had a bad feeling about the situation and I was terrified. Ashamedly, I wanted to walk away as quick as possible. Caleb stopped walking and got his phone out. While I was terrified, he was trying to nonchalantly get a picture of the man. A group of people walked past and the man walked away. I don't know if what we saw could have almost been a robbery but I know how I felt. I was terrified but Caleb had the courage to stay there and he was ready to defend and help however he could.

2. Two days ago Caleb and I were coming home from a run. We were almost home when we heard yelling. At first it just sounded like people making noise but then we heard, "Please stop! Stop!" At first I had the instinct to keep walking but Caleb had slowed down and was turning towards the sound. The yelling continued and we started walking towards the sound. Two boys were in the pool. The yelling stopped but the bigger kid looked sheepish. We walked by them (staring... I guess we were trying to make sure they knew that we were watching) and went to our neighbors for a few minutes before walking by them again to make sure things were okay still.

I don't know if either of these events that we witnessed were what we thought they were, but I am proud of Caleb and his desire to help others. He is more brave than I am in every way. I know that he will always choose the right and he will keep me safe in every way. He is made of good and I am lucky.
