Lawyer and I have been married for almost 16 years. I adore him ... but as all couples do we have our differences. I am emotional and love to talk and he is stoic, sensible and intensely private. I gush my feelings and thoughts ... he keeps his close to his chest.
This is an ongoing debate in our marriage. I show my love by cards, notes, texts and words ... he shows his by acts of service. He is known for cooking and cleaning for hours just to say I love you. I will write out a lengthy I love and adore you and then want to sit and talk about it for days. He would rather gag!
Enter the two state marriage. I live in Georgia ... him in Kansas! And all of a sudden I have more romance. He can't do things for me and is forced to talk. I couldn't be happier.
Exhibit one ... yesterday am ...
Me: Good morning my love!
Him: And to you my sweet.
Me: I am ready for you to be home.
Him: Me too!
Swoon!!!
And then this morning ...
Me: Good morning shug!
Him: Hey baby ... 2 more days!
Me: I can't wait!!
Him: Me too. I love you!
Swooning again!
It's true ... the heart does grow fonder! Of course he would KILL me for posting these. I am telling you ... intensely private!!!
Oh well ... I can only hope when we are all together once again that it will be words and actions and not just actions once again! I am adding it to my prayer list today!!!
Have a great one ... I am off to a glorious day with a bestie!!
