A simple smile

Just before I left you weren't feeling well, i hope youbare feeling better.

So i spent much of this past weekend following you around telling you how much I loved you. I think almost to the point where it was annoying you at times. So I figure I will use the blog to explain why i felt so compelled to tell you all weekend.

It was Thursday night during the flood recovery when it happened. Choas ensued throughout the house. Water pouring in from the outside and us trying to figure out how to get our stuff put up quickly enough to avoid damage. Just prior we had spent time in the basement avoiding a potential tornado. It was during these critical times that i realized you had your own super power.

Your power is your smile. You may not know this but at both times when the girls looked nervous you smilwd and said something witty. Both times even in your own uncertainty you made them feel safe and comfortable. Both times it was what you said near as much as the smile you gave them to make them feel safer. I felt it too. It was like suddenly you put all of us on your shoulders so we knew exactly what to do. And you did with one of your finest smiles making us feel comfortable.

So i started thinking. When have we seen that smile before? And we have. I have seen it way more lately than in previous yeras because you must hvae some sense of my nerves right now. We saw it in Hilton Head when you tried to calm the unstoppable nephew. It just turns out that the smile i saw is your "don't worry everything will be fine" smile. The best part is that I don't even think you know that you do it.

So it made me really attracted to you all weekend. It made me feel so comfortable to be with you. It made me realize that even after over 8,000 days together, I am still learning new things about the person I love so much. I know that this life with you will never be boring.

You're the world to me. I love you more than anything in the world.
