Something happened today that made me realize how much love I have in my house and I am so thankful for it.

My husband used to work in a bank but during the crisis he  36 his job. The economy wasn’t good and he hadn’t many  37 to get another bank job. We were hoping and  38 that he would be offered a position.

He got a  39 and it brought us a feeling of  40 . We were able to  41 our mortgage（按揭贷款） and buy our groceries; but money was still very  42 , so he found another job  43 deliveries from Monday to Thursday.

He has been working so  44  that I wanted to make it an extra  45 Christmas this year. I wanted our house to be filled with  46 －I didn’t want anybody to be  47 this year. I finally got round to getting the Christmas tree out yesterday and I worked all day to make the house look  48 .

When my husband came home at 8 p.m. he looked  49 . Seeing the house he  50 the biggest smile, grabbed me and gave me a huge  51 . Then he apologized for not being able to help me. He said he knew it was hard on me because he didn’t get around and he was  52 that I had not complained.

He was apologizing for working so hard to feed us and keep a  53 over our heads! He was doing two jobs that made much less than his previous job and coming home exhausted. I had no  54 to tell him how much I LOVED him and how  55 I was of him and that he was such a great husband and father and provider for us.
