What do you and your spouse or best friend have
in common?
When I was dating, I had a few requirements for
a husband. He had to carry on a
conversation that went beyond his car, his band, and karate. Yep, those were some of the guys I dated
before him that couldn’t talk about anything else. I also wanted him to be a good dad. I had the best dad in the world, and he had to
be second best. Finally, he had to have
a faith life of his own. My spouse is
all of that and so much more.
We both love our kids, including the ones we
have collected along the way. Faith is
the staple of our marriage. We love our
parish and both volunteer. We love to
read, study history, and travel everywhere. We can talk almost all topics. We are loyal Americans and soldiers. We love to go to the movies or just walk
around downtown. We are both game to go
to a theater production, an art gallery, a museum, or a concert. Oh, and Monday nights, we love to go watch
football and have a drink. He isn’t into gardening like I am, but he will go
through a botanical garden, and he enjoys watching my plants grow and bloom. I am not one to like cooking, but I enjoy his
passion to cook and smoke/barbecue and go to competitions. In the same respect, I don’t mind sending him
out the door to hangout with a buddy or volunteer for one of his organizations.
He sends me out the door to attend a
writing workshop or go on a weekend getaway by myself to write. I can’t imagine a better person to travel with
on this journey.
