It's so many little things

I don't remember the last time I bragged on my husband (or my marriage) so here goes!

I have been so overwhelmed with how much I truly love Jesse lately, I just want to write about it. I'm sure it will just be rambles but oh well!

Ever have a moment where you're just with someone and you think "I couldn't love this person more if I tried"? Me too. But then I do. I love him more and more and more every day. Nothing major has to happen. Nothing life changing. Just every day things. Little things. So many little things.

When he laughs at something outrageous that I say. When he takes my dirty cup to the sink just because he's heading that way. Helping my Dad or Mom. Working extra shifts and bringing in more income for our family. Covering me with a blanket. Petting Moose and then calling her Cheeseburger because she's putting on a little weight. Letting me pick what we watch. Teasing me about Tom Brady getting beat by the Panthers (yes, I admit, I'm a Tom Brady fan). Helping me get the tool box off the top shelf of the closet. Checking to make sure the steak fingers we ate weren't too crunchy for my sore, now wisdom toothless mouth. Making up little songs and singing them like he just signed a multimillion dollar contract. Telling me I'm the best cook when our meal was literally frozen chicken nuggets, mac and cheese and mashed potatoes -- just because he likes to mix it all together. The way he mixes all of his food together. My new favorite, when he makes sure to be touching me when we sleep. An arm around me, holding my hand, feet crossed. Yes, even when we're sound asleep, I fall more and more in love with him!

It's so strange to me how so many little things can make my heart so full. And I totally, 100% realize how silly I sound that such odd things make my heart skip a beat but seriously, who wouldn't love a man who takes notice that I put new fall decor in our home and says he really likes it?!

I am so incredibly blessed to have such an awesome husband and such a loving marriage. He makes me feel more loved than I ever thought possible. He makes me laugh. He makes me feel safe. He is quite literally the best friend a person could ask for.

This is the kind of marriage I hope we can sustain. I want our future children to see the love we have for one another and long for it themselves. I know we are probably going to experience rough times and we won't always get along so well but I hope that when we forget, the little things will remind us. I hope that we never lose what we have right now! Because right now, I couldn't be more in love... or could I?! ;)
