It is a rare occasion that my amazing husband actually gets
to have lunch out. Normally we make his lunch, give him a water (half frozen),
and lots of love and kisses. He understands when I have an appointment, or
situations like today. I literally had to wait for the side door to be fixed.
Mostly, I enjoy the fact our children get to see how much their daddy loves
them and the sacrifices he makes. On his breaks he'll keep in touch with them
through the game (sending private messages or reminders).
Today the man in our life had "all you can eat
pizza". Where he found a hand radio, that turns out belongs to the local
police? He called the non-emergency line, said the name listed on the bottom,
and waited for them to pick it up. I wish I could hold his same sentiment and
adoration for our local law enforcement. He called me to only say (because it
was left on) how interesting it was to hear the chatter over the line. He went
into detail about how they messed up cross streets to a local business for a
hit and run. He was mildly excited to hear the conversations and to actually
hear insight to current things going on. He has the memory of an elephant!!!
I told him there are probably apps for him to actually
listen in much like a CB radio... he has no interest, and made that clear. But,
it was interesting in the moment to have knowledge others have yet to hear
about. We had a small conversation about how those that actually track police
lines and learn the codes... but obviously not a hobby either of us will be taking
up in the future.
Bottom line is that he did yet another "act of
kindness" (which I love about him)... he does what is right even when no
one is watching!!! ~*Grateful*~
