the hubs

So, I was going to write something here about divorce, and how much it sucks for everyone involved. But, I just can't bring myself to rant over something that isn't my fault. I have very specific thoughts on the subject, and I'm happy to share them with anyone who wants to listen. But, I am in the mood to be happy today.

So here goes:
I love my husband because he...
... takes out the trash & recycling
... works his ass off for our family
... loves me unconditionally
... can make Lena and Hunter (and me) laugh uncontrollably, tears and everything
... can fix almost anything around the house
... does fix almost everything around the house
... allows me to be the independent person that I am
... hates it when I cry, no matter the cause
... is conscientious about our finances, and keeps me on track
... will go out of his way to pick up my contacts for me, even when he doesn't have a clue where he's going
... can be completely helpless about certain things, and isn't afraid to admit it
... is already concerned about how the yard is going to get mowed this summer 
... got puked on, and didn't puke himself 
... likes (loves) my family, and makes a real effort to get along with everyone
... loves his family, and isn't afraid to NOT get along with everyone
... gave Lena and Hunter some of his mannerisms and his beautiful brown eyes
... forgives me readily
... is a wayyy better dad than my dad
... doesn't mind when my momma visits
... loves his momma 
... quit smoking
... lets me drive everywhere we go
... goes along with cosmetic changes to our house
... knows that I'm a *little* crazy, but loves me anyway

I'm sure there's more... I'll add to the list later :)
