It's Friday again, which means it's time for the Celebrate the Small Things Bloghop, hosted by VicLit at Scribblings of an Aspiring Writer. Make sure to pop over to say hi and sign up to celebrate with us!
So, I was thinking of things to be grateful for and the first thing that popped into my head is one of the first things that always pops into my head when I remember what I have to be thankful for--my husband.
He is the best, most-supportive, awesome husband in the world. We've been married for twenty-five years last June, and I wouldn't be who I am without him. He has been the single-most defining force in my life, the one person I can always count on, no matter what. He is also a great father who is always there for our four kids.
I've been in love with him since I was fifteen and I only love him more now than I did all those years ago.
What about you guys? Married? Single? What are you grateful for this week?
Lovely post!
ReplyDeleteI am single, but sometimes that is something to be grateful for lol!
haha...I hear ya! I've known a lot of guys who would make me grateful to be single if I was. I think I snatched up one of the only good ones. Sorry! ;)
