Romance

March 6, 2009

Back in 1986 when my idea of romance was this:

Romance, 1986

I wouldn’t have understood the tremendous value of romance that looks like this:

Romance, 2009

Live and learn.

Life is good.

And so is my man.

    I have a similarly romantic relationship – in our household this week it was “thanks for shooting the possum” – trying to ready our chicken coop and don’t want marauders in the yard – DH is good to me!

    Too true – love it!

    That’s what romance looks like here, too! And I’m sure in 1986 I wouldn’t have realized how sweet this kind of love is. :)

    Ahhh! So true! It’s the Big Things at first…then it becomes a lot of Little Things. A LOT!

    I treasure that second example so much in my marriage – that’s what makes marriages work!

    Thanks for sharing, great way to start the day reading this blog :)
    Too many people settle for less, this is a great example of what can be. Bravo!

    That is what having years together is for, for making you learn new things about romance.
    Simple but very effective.

    I love little notes like this!

  10. Melanie on March 8, 2009 at 8:13 pm

    That is so true. I love to get little notes!

    Isn’t it amazing? I’d say you two have figured out each other’s love language!

    This is so true…My whole day lightens up when I get a text message from Hubby saying “I love you have a good day.”

    Don’t get me wrong, flowers and diamonds are always acceptable lol, but these are the moments that make like sweet.

  13. Jenny on March 9, 2009 at 4:16 pm

    LOL, it’s so true, though.

    So true. I’m going to need to leave one in a day or two that says thanks for fixing the wax ring on the toilet. =)

    This post makes me think of Dr. Laura’s book “The Proper Care and Feeding of Marriage”. Thanks for that. It shows that others think the same way!

    1986 was a great year. and yes…romance gets much more enjoyed at the smaller everyday events…like bringing a cup of coffee…or fixing the tp holder.
    and here i am…24 years married…2 kids raised and in college..and a grandson i adore with every cell of my being…………lookin to adopt? thank you for your encouraging blog and writing.
