Hi Ladies. Since not one of you has replied to
this question, I can only assume that no one has an answer that is "nice". Come on, be honest, none of those catagories were what you really wanted the award for. They are all too nice. How about "jerk of the year" award, or
"the Mr. Know It All" award. Be honest, men are
not always the greatest critters to be around, after all, they are men. Hey, maybe there should be an award for that - the award for being "the most typical man". That would be hard to pick out who would win it, since they are mostly all cut from the same mold. I wouldn't trade my man for anything, but I'm honest enough with myself after 42 years of marriage to say that it isn't all "peaches and cream".

My husband Mike of 13 years is a great husband. He trys really hard at cleaning taking care of our son and I love that he will do anything that is asked of him as long as the Cleveland Indians aren't on.

MY EX-HUSBAND HAS 7 CHILDREN. 4 FROM HIS FIRST MARRIAGE,WHO HE MARRIED TWICE. WE WERE MARRIED 31YRS WHEN I HAD ENOUGH. HE COULD REALLY BRUSH UP ON BEING THERE FOR ALL HIS KIDS AND NOT JUST ONE OR TWO. I KNOW WHAT IT IS NOT HAVING A DAD. MINE DIED WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND I WOULD DO ANYTHING TO HAVE HIM HERE NOW. IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE A DAD, BE A DAD TO ALL OF THEM AND CHERISH EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM.

My husband and I have been married for almost 6 years.May 25th is our anniversary.We've been together for 14 years.They say everyone has a soul mate out there.Well I found mine.He has 2 kids and I have 2 kids.None together.We are raising a granddaughter together so I guess that counts as one together.We have 5 grandchildren.He is great with the kids.ME TOO.I have a lot of health probelms and he is right there pitching in.Even after working a 9 hr. day.I was married before to a real jerk..I spent 16 yrs. with him.I'm thankful to God for the Man I'm with now.I would not trade him for anything in this world.

My husband Jeff is amazing at everything, but he has ALWAYS made housekeeping a two way street! He vaccums, does the floors (washes them), and even dusts! He is also the most incredible dad and husband ever! He is always putting the kids or me first, event hough the kids have been out of the house for quite a few years... I consider myself to be the luckiest person on earth, and I honestly believe that I have the best of both worlds in Jeff!

Actually, my husband's amazing feat is his dedication to doing his best at avoiding me and my to-do-list. He is winning this marathon.

MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE BEEN TOGETHER SINCE 1969 AND MARRIED FOR THE PAST 36 OF THOSE...AND WE BOTH HAVE SO MANY HEALTH ISSUES,BUT WE BOTH JUST KEEP PUSHING EACH OTHER TO TAKE THINGS "ONE DAY AT A TIME",AND HELP EACH OTHER ANY WAY WE CAN..WE HAVE BEEN VERY BLESSED TO HAVE OUR 36YR.OLD SON TO HELP US WITH THE YARD,,HE PUT IN A WATERFALL AND POND & THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ROSE GARDENS & FLOWERS OF EVERY KIND.SINCE WE ARE UNABLE TO GO PLACES LIKE BEFORE SO HE'S MADE SURE WE HAVE OUR BEAUTIFUL YARD TO ENJOY ALL YEAR LONG & ALSO HE PLANT'S 2 LARGE VEGGIE GARDEN SO WE HAVE HEALTHY FOOD TO ENJOY ALL SUMMER THEN I TRY TO CAN WHAT I'M ABLE TO SO WE HAVE VEGGIES ALL WINTER,SO YOU MIGHT SAY WE ARE TRULY BLESSED.

My significant other and I have been together for 3 + years and he is the most wonderful person in my life! He has taken my 3 grown children and 6 grandchildren under his wing since our first day together. He has taken the job as the cook in our house. I cook once every few weeks, but he does it all for the most part. I would truly be lost without him- in fact I am always reminding him that he is stuck with me the rest of his life.

I know it sounds cheeeeeesy but, making me smile. When we met we worked at the same restaurant & that is what made me fall for him in the first place. If I was in a mood, or having a problem - he could always make me laugh. Whether it be dancing , or singing, or whatever. Even if he made a fool out of himself- as long as he could make me smile- he didn't care ! 9 yrs later... We have been married for 8 yrs & we are crazzzy in love.

My husband is a fantastic cook, before I became disabled we'd always planned on his retiring early and opening a restaurant while I kept working until it would support us sufficiently best laid plans as they say! lol he's also very much a couch potato with the tv on every minute he is home but he also is great about helping out around the house. He may not clean things as well as I'd like but certainly not going to complain if he's willing to help out I'll let him do it his way!
