Everyday Heroes Blog Series: Jonathan Lisek

Writer: amylynnlisekamylynnlisek

I can't really do this blog series without highlighting my amazing, selfless husband.


It's been an especially challenging last week and Jonathan has been so amazing through it all. I keep thinking about how parents are truly Everyday Heroes that don't get enough credit for how incredible they are day in and day out.


One day last week, we were both up through the night with our youngest. Jonathan barely got any sleep but he still left the house before 7am to make the long commute to his office. By the time he worked all day and then got delayed on the way home, he didn't even make it home until 7pm. Sure he was dead tired, but he made it a priority to make our youngest a batch of gluten free pancakes (he's on a special diet and can only eat certain foods) so that he'd have enough to last the week. I'll never forget looking over in the kitchen and being surprised to see him flipping pancakes at 8pm and thinking how incredible he is for being so thoughtful.


And then over the weekend, again we were up from 1-5am one night with our youngest. At one point, Jonathan even tried sleeping on his floor to see if he'd go back to sleep that way...


But its just that kind of sacrificial love that is so selfless and amazing of parents. If you are a parent, just know that you are definitely an Everyday Hero, too!! (Or if you are a dog or cat parent or take care of animals because that's also very selfless and takes a lot of compassion! I'll never forget how much work it took when I rescued a cat once).


Anyways, I want to say THANK YOU to my amazing husband for being the best & our #1 dad & HERO ❤️
