When I handed this site over to my husband for his birthday, I fully expected a blog-style beatdown. Retribution for the last 55 posts in which I’ve detailed almost every single annoying trait he has. Believe me when I tell you that I anticipated no less than a massive litany of my most irritating, least endearing habits. I assure you that I did not threaten my husband with bodily harm, withholding of any physical affection or putting up humiliating pictures for all the world to see (oops, I’ve already done that…) unless he wrote a nice, romantic post about me. In fact, I read the post with some trepidation and quite a bit of nerves, expecting the worst.
And so my husband surprised me with his genuinely sweet words that actually made me tear up a bit. We celebrated his birthday in a wonderful way and I think he was really happy which makes me happy.

But boy, did he miss out on a rare opportunity and if he thinks he’s getting another one anytime soon, he’d better think again!

I want to love my Mom, but I don’t think she likes me. What do you think?

What a wonderful relationship you two have! That was such a sweet post he shared with all of us. The fact that you both seem to have a sense of humor about human nature and a genuine appreciation for one another is inspiring.

You guys are seriously so cute! The fact that you can openly blog about him and he seems to care less (maybe even enjoy it?) shows just how strong your relationship really is.
