ReplyDeletehe sounds wonderful!!!!
wow!
ReplyDeleteindeed, he does sound wonderful. you are a lucky lady.
:-)))
ReplyDeletethankyou ladies - i prefer to think luck had nothing to do with it though... i am blessed that we met, and blessed that he stayed with me through the tough times... but that was work there too and not so much luck
ReplyDeleteIt takes a brave man to admit to caring about clothes pegs LOL
ReplyDeleteSeriously - he's very special; he must be to have found you.
I feel much admiration for you both for working through the tough times together.
I love him for how he fathers his girls.
xxoxx
PS - I also love him for loving you xx
ReplyDeleteI just love this, darling! In my experience (observation?), it's become almost uncool to talk about one's spouse in glowing terms. I'm so happy to see you burst that bubble, darl. [Whispering: I have something half written about Mr Mouse] You're right, there's a lot of hard work... but I do believe in luck or fate or whatever too. "Tough times" are part of every journey. It's my hope that most couples starting out together know this. But sometimes I'm not too sure!

I came via the joy rebel, and poked thru your words.
Loved this tribute to your love, it made me smile.
