Dearest Josh,
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways ...
- You love me.
- Your faith in God
- You love our kids.
- Your smile
- Your dimples
- Your brown eyes
- You can fix almost anything.
- You can build almost anything.
- Your kisses
- Your hugs
- You let me warm up my cold feet on you in bed.
- You're smart.
- You explain things well without talking down to people.
- You're humble.
- You're patient.
- You play with the kids.
- You do the dishes so that my dry hands don't get irritated.
- You give S baths and have bathed all the kids when they were young.
- You don't mind helping with housework.
- You make the kids breakfast every Sunday while I get ready for church.
- You bring me flowers from time to time.
- You're honest.
- You work hard.
- You can cook and bake and don't mind doing it sometimes.
- You like and appreciate my cooking.
- You love wearing your
grubby"comfortable" clothes but dress appropriately as warranted. - You're frugal. (That doesn't always fit on this list!)
- You let me turn off the radio when the noise bothers me even though you were listening to it.
- You listen to me talk.
- You talk to me and share your thoughts with me.
- You hold me when I cry.
- You know and understand that when I say "I love you", there is so much more to it than just those three words.
- You're my best friend.
- You married me.
All my love,
Great list! I agree, "frugal" is a great quality in a man, but not always one of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great list Melanie! You are blessed!
ReplyDeleteOh! This is such a sweet list of fabulous qualities that every woman needs in a man. Thanks for sharing your response of love to your Godly husband today. I'm honored to "know" him through you. :~D

I can almost hear you sigh. Praise God for an enjoyable and satisfying marriage.
ReplyDeleteMelanie,
ReplyDeleteI am a "list girl", so this post truly was up my alley. I know that you are very blessed to have someone like Josh. And by the way, I especially identified with #26 in a MAJOR way! LOVED IT!

Such a wonderful list.
ReplyDeletelet me count the ways lol.. love the list!
ReplyDeleteI bet you ran out of time before you ran out of "ways", huh? I know I would have! Wonderful marriages are such a blessing!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh....I love the list!! It brings back memories for me reading this. When we first got married, we'd tease each other with the beginning lines of the same "How much I do love thee...." :) I'm sure it blessed him so much to read it!
ReplyDeleteHi Melanie,
ReplyDeleteYou spent some significant time thinking through all these qualities. You honor your husband by your words. He sounds like a wonderful man. Thank you for sharing your heart and a glimps into a Godly man. Hugs.
