Small Things Get Big Results
09/24/2018

I love being a wife, mother, and girlfriend.  I recently had a "Gone With the Wind" moment I wanted to share.

I returned home late in the evening from an out-of-town trip.  My husband was asleep, as he gets up at 4AM to go to work.  I love to wake up when he does and make him breakfast, pack him a lunch and send him off.  This is something he truly appreciates.  

That night, I had only been asleep for about two hours when I heard my husband up and in the shower.  I thought to myself I could stay in bed and sleep since he would understand, OR I could get up and do these small things for him and go back to sleep later.  I got up and proceeded downstairs to the kitchen.  I was almost finished with his meals when he came downstairs.  As we had not had a chance to say "hello" yet, because of my late arrival, he looked at me lovingly, kissed me passionately, picked me up, carried me all the way upstairs, put me down gently on the bed, tucked me in, kissed me again sweetly, said he loved me, and left for work.

I married a MAN, and tonight I will be more than his girlfriend!  Thanks, Dr. Laura, for reminding us that making your spouse happy is the most wonderful thing in the world.  I love that man!
