Why Do I Love Thee?

Let me count* the ways…  

Our 2nd date you took me for a ride on the back of your Harley so we could have a private picnic in the park. And you packed up our picnic yourself.

You convinced your family I was a ‘keeper’, even though I didn’t play Pinochle.

When I was a scabbed and oozing mess of chicken pox – you still came over to visit me. You ran my errands. You played with my kid, who was too frightened to come near me. Yes, it was that bad.

When you’re feeling mischievous, you buy me cute little animals and place them in the garden, when I’m not looking.

You bought me a new sewing machine, because my old one ‘cussed too much’.

When you promised ‘in sickness and in health’, on our wedding day, you had no idea what you were in for.

I hope you can think of many ways that your honey-bunch loves you!

* I have way more reason’s than listed here, but my brain quits work at 4:00pm and it is now 10:30pm.
