heart of the matter meme

This week's Heart of the Matter Meme asks: What do you love about your spouse? How did you meet? How long have you been married? What is particularly special about him/her?

well, this one is just too easy NOT to answer. Let me tell you what I love about my man:
1. he is just that ... all man
2. he goes out of his way each and every day to see that all my needs are being met
3. he will drop anything if I really need him
4. he calls me his very lovely and beautiful wife every day, no matter what
5. he is one of the most forgiving people I know
6. he is totally laid-back
7. he never gets carried away
8. he shares my dreams
9. he is an excellent cook and does the dishes to boot
10. he doesn't always know what to say, but he knows how to hold me
11. he plays the bass and is an artist
12. he goes to work and then comes home, happily, because home is what he loves
13. he supports us homeschooling (or not)
14. he doesn't mind when I am just.too.weak.to.do.it.alone
15. he is my best friend
16. divorce is not an option for him
17. we have been married for 15 years and he still hopes for many more
18. he took me to a tropical island (yes, we were missionaries, but still)
19. he is full of romantic suprises
20. he is the most gentle man I know

You DO have an awesome husband! And I meant, in my email, to say Heart of the Matter, not The Homeschool Lounge. I am dopey!

you forgot to mention the cool facial hair, and the love of potatoes, and his admiration of peanut butter by the spoonful, and his cartwheeling competitions with my husband....so much more to be said here! Well said my friend. And he is truly blessed to have you.
