More husband...

Since I did a little complaining about my husband yesterday I decided I would give equal time to saying nice things about him. Because one day recently I was watching him do something around the house and was reminded of how important the little things are in a relationship. I think young people believe its all about passion and sex, when in reality its much more about the way someone makes you smile.

For instance: I love the way he takes the feather duster and dusts all the high places in the house for me. He looks adorable reaching into the corners and getting the cobwebs. I smile every time he leaves for the dump because I hate garbage and taking out trash. I enjoy watching him fall asleep sitting up on the couch every afternoon when he gets home from work, head bobbing up and down. And I absolutely love it when he asks me which tie he should wear, because it makes me feel as though my opinion is important to him.

See what I mean? It's all about the little things.So to all the young couples out there starting out, remember this: spend more time on the little things because if you're together, the big ones are already there. But those little things can make a big difference in the long run!

Agreed. I feel it is more feeling safe and secure with the other person than anything else. We all need someone we can trust. That is why it hurts so bad when things go bad. Nothing worse than a broken trust. Broken hearts can be mended but never a broken trust or promise.

I agree, Barbara. Who cares about multi tasking when he's making me smile?
