Buffer Week

Next week is buffer week at AHS. Which happens to be the break between fall and winter sports where no practice is to be held. This week is kind of like the calm before the storm in our house.
I am very blessed to have a husband that does more than his fair share around our house and is also a hands on dad. He is the one that gets Madelyn up and around every morning and takes her to school and the one that bring her home after school. He stays home with Madelyn during the summers and all other school breaks. The two of them have such a special bond because of all the time he spends with her. Unfortunately come wrestling season the entire schedule changes and we don't get to see a whole lot of Ryan. He usually will get home after 6:30pm every evening during the week, has wrestling duals every Thursday and when January hits he is gone all day every Saturday at a tournament and on Sundays he usually does a little bird hunting. For those that know me know that it is a huge adjustment for me when Ryan is gone a lot. I am a bit high maintenance when it comes to attention. I also have become quite spoiled by having such a great husband and get kind of cranky when he isn't around to help out as much as he usually does. By the end of wrestling season, which is the last weekend in February, we are all ready for it to be over. But there is also an adjustment period for all of us when Ryan is home more. Madelyn and I get pretty used to doing our own thing during wrestling season and when it is over we have to adjust our schedule to include Ryan.
Although there are adjustments at the beginning and end of wrestling season I wouldn't trade my life or my husband for anything. He is an amazing husband and father.
