Why I love Nathaniel
1) He loves his mom. (that says a lot about a guy and how he will treat you, hint hint wink wink)
2) He's a spiritual giant as well as physical. Not a big fan of the physical giant though. I can't whisper in his ear or have our heads close when we hug. It drives me nuts! Hopefully, I will gain a foot in the resurrection. :)
3) He loves the Lord and loves to attend the temple frequently.
4) He knows so much about so many different topics. It's amazing. Especially about history, which I never paid attention to in school, so I am grateful that I have many opportunities to learn history over and over again.
5) He's very careful in what he says and never says something without "internalizing" it.
6) He has a funny sense of humor that only comes out when he's with people he knows well.
7) He's optimistic about life. He constantly sees the blessings God has given us instead of dwelling on what we don't have.
8) He loves children and plays so well with them. I'll never forget the primary freeze tag, Nathaniel was so excited to play but could not fit under the kid's legs to unfreeze them.
9) He loves Evelyn soooo much and plays so cute with her. My favorite is how he talks really tough with her for example "This is the last diaper I am changing so make it count!"
10) He's so good with initiating family scripture and prayer and FHE and keeping our family on the right track.
Of course there is his handsome looks... but we won't get into that.
10 random things about Nathaniel
1) He always carries around a pencil in his pocket. If he doesn't happen to have a pencil it's because I "borrowed" it from him. :)
2) He wears a size 16 in shoes. He never walks around barefoot and hardly ever walks around in socks. (His feet have issues, I think it's because the skin could not handle all of the s-t-r-e-t-c-h-i-n-g.)
3) He will eat everything. He is not a picky eater except he will not eat olives. He hates 'em for some strange reason. It's beyond me. He'll eat homemade dog food (no joke, we found it in the cannery's recipe book, it was supposed to be raisin bran but we found out later it was the dog food recipe as well) but he won't eat olives.
4)He has not adapted to the Mormon culture of time...yet. His motto is " if you are not 15 minutes early, you're late."He hates to be late.
5) He gets just as excited and spastic over little small things as I do. NO joke. It's hilarious.
6) He hates to spend money. He doesn't see the need to buy 2 pairs of jeans when he already has one pair of jeans. "You can only wear one at a time anyway."
7) He loves Thanksgiving at the Cherry's. Why? Because they make like 18 pies of all kinds for 14 people. His favorite pie is combining the 18 different slices of pies to make one large 'combo" pie and eating it all in one sitting.
8) He loves to read up on the news about the world and politics but he does not like to talk about it with anyone even with me because he says it's depressing. Go figure.
9) Mom don't read this next one: Nathaniel has all the episodes of the Simpsons on like 15 DVD's. It's ridiculous. However, he hasn't watched them since we have been married...or so he says. :)
10) He has memorized all of "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" movie. I still haven't watched it all the way through (the movie drives me nuts) but we have watched "Sense and Sensibility" all the way through. :) He also likes 'Nacho Libre" and "Napoleon Dynamite".
