Many of you know what a great relationship my husband and I have. Many of you know that he also reads my blog everyday, and often adds a quip here or there to tease or encourage me. So far, I have not made a point of bragging on my husband, and I'm sure that there are times when he might wonder why. Though bragging on him is not the purpose of my blog, having a great marriage is one of the aspects of this blog. So today, I want to tell the world why I think my hubby's the best. Please don't hate me, because my husband's beautiful. :)
He has the most beautiful green eyes that when they are uncovered (he likes his sunglasses), causes even the most faithful of women to want to stare into them, and drown in their depths. I suppose that could be a stumbling block, but I don't mind. They are beautiful, after all.
He has a magnificent body that he does not have to work at (I'm kinda jealous of this fact, because I DO have to work at any semblance of a nice shape, but oh well.) I like to look at it, so we're even.
He takes me on a date night almost every week. He takes me to dinner or a movie, and some date nights, we just sit and "park." We're married, so it's allowed. I love that we still desire each other even after 7 years. I know that's not a long time, but for a second marriage, complete with four kids, that IS an accomplishment. Thank God for healthy marriages!!!
He sends me flowers just because. And just to say he loves me.
He cooks (sometimes better than I do); he cleans, and he loves to be alone with the kids, while I have time away.
He goes to work everyday (even when he's sick) so that I don't have to go to work anymore. He works at a job he doesn't like (though he is grateful for it), building things he has no liking for (miniature trains) and he does it all pretty much without complaint.
He sends me music videos of love songs all the time, and sometimes he sings to me. He won't sing in public, though he has a nice voice, but he sings to me. I am so blessed!
He encourages me in everything I do, even when it isn't pleasant for him (my blog). He tells me I am a great writer (that's arguable). He encourages me to sing in the choir, though I'm not a great singer- only ok. He tells me I was born to act, though I only get to do it at church. He is my cheering section.
He knows me better than I know myself sometimes. He knows when something is bothering me, and holds me when I need to cry.
He's one of the few men I've ever met that actually likes and wants to cuddle. Yes, he really does!
He joins Women's Health Forums, so that he can get information and answers for me. He takes better care of me, than he takes care of himself, I sometimes think.
All these things I mention are not to make you covet what I have, but just to let my husband know that all the little things he does are BIG to me. I love you so much, My Love!! God blessed me beyond measure when he gave you to me.
Your Forever Love.

Thank you babe, I needed that today. Day 4 is being a well you know. You make me sound like so much more than I feel that I am. I will continue to do these things, and more, because YOU deserve to be treated that way. I can't think of any other way to be towards you. I love you so much babe. Thank you again and I hope day 3 is not too bad for you. Please call me if you start to loose it.

Someday, I hope to have a love like that. Tell me, was it always so perfect? Or did it grow into this? (I'm holding out and hoping that what I have right now will become this way. I love him, and don't want to be without him, but sometimes I think we're going to fall apart.)
ReplyDeleteHi Andie, hold on to that hope, and pray. While our marriage was good at times before now, and much of this stuff he did do before too, he didn't do it with the heart that he does it now. I'd like to recommend a book to you. It's called "I Promise" by Dr. Gary Smalley. It is designed to be a six week study course done within a small group, but you can read the book and do the study on your own if you like. Also, and this is totally up to you, my husband and I are leaders for this study. We can correspond with you by email, or by video conference, if you have a webcam (It's totally free, and I'll tell you how.) I would be happy to walk you through the study. Even if you can't get your husband to read it with you, it can do wonders for your marriage even if only one of you does it. It is a book based on biblical principles, so being a believer would help. I don't know if you are, or not, but it really doesn't make a difference in the way it can help your marriage. The bible really is an instruction manual for living, and helps in every area of life. Feel free to email me at info@prv31woman.org, if you'd like to talk with me more about this. Blessings to you, and I will be praying for you.
