The "What I appreciate about my spouse right now" thread

Since we both work and he's a cop, I'm a security guard and have had some health issues, I love him for his patience, his being obsessive about the yard and garden, how he loves me and our pets and my familly and friends, how he loves God ...
...and yes he loves my cow. I caught him kissing Trixie's head.

Plus he's the grill King, knows how to mop, run a vacuum, do laundry, make beds, Murphy Oil Soap the piano and china cabinet, run a dishwasher, clean pots and pans and the grill, make beds, and fuss at me when I do too much and he kicks in.

Actually he's at his best at prayer, our Bible lessons Erin (my sister) and I are doing, and just being himself.

I love you, Ben. Thank you for who you are, my dear love. But seriously, you need to quit tripping over the little area rug in the living room. Really. You know it's there, honey. How hard is this?

All good things

I love that she has put up with my insanity for an offical year now and she can still take the insanity.

I appreciate the fact that my wife is drama free.
She never gets involved in drama with anyone.
Kind of unusual to see these days.

I appreciate that even though she doesnt care for football... she still listens to me babble on about my Texans... and even when they dont play... she accepts that I root for a team that isnt my own.

Today, Im big time rooting for the Dolphins.

Beat those evil Colts.

She's almost always in a good mood.
We never fight.

he's still so thoughtful!

he left little "surprises" for us to find when out of country
such as a chick-fil-A gift card

How loving he is even when he's running late getting up for work.

Well that IS nice of him.

My wife hates the "chickfila surprise" I leave her before I go to work.... the wrapper balled up and left under the cushion on her side of the couch for example.

Not to mention the sheer will and determination of the man... to buy a gift card from chickfila and make it out the door without at least using the card to get a thing of nuggets... or a chicken biscuit....

Id have to give my wife a gift card to Chickfila but deduct the nuggets at least... like offeting up a box of chocolates.... with one or teo missing..


It's not my fault Chickfila is so awesome.

Me? Loving?... NEVER!

I'm a mustard stained, self scratching, belly dragging bull.

I'm thankful that my wife prays for me.

I don't have to look far to see
how I should be acting.
It ain't easy living with a Saint!

He never makes me feel small. He is a great listener, and enjoys working out with me.

That's a special man you have there.
Wishing for you two a blessed Christmas.

He made soup from scratch when I wasn't feeling well. He never cooks and thinks he hates it. He did pretty good, if you ask me!

I think so too! Thank you, Bob, merry Christmas to you and your loved ones.

appreciate husband being a great dad

My husband is easy going - such a model for me especially with Christmas list

He isn’t a sexist. After reading posts on here by men, I’m feeling quite grateful for my level heading, awesome husband.

He puts God first and I believe this makes our marriage strong.
