I keep coming back because the thread has made me more aware of what goes on between myself and hubby and remembering things from other successful marriages, though we do not always know the things that make a marriage successful ...
One of the things we do each time we meet is say "Hello" and deliver a kiss and hug ... every morning when each of us gets up, as he heads off to work, or I head out to a meeting, before we are about to be apart ... goodbye, kiss, hug, don't get lost, be safe ... every morning, good morning, smile, kiss, hug ... coffee <g>
and, if one of us is gone, when we get back home, we expect and look for the other person ... sometimes, he will be working on something and can't leave to come to me, but then it is my job to go find him and tell him I am home ... it is such a little thing ...
now that it is winter, we get static, and the sparks really fly sometimes! <g> And, he is an electrician, so I really get a charge out of life! LOL
anyway, as Hubby is leaving for work, I stand up to kiss him goodbye, and he reaches out one of his fingers to touch me before we kiss .... those static things really smart on the lips, you know <g> and, by golly, he has figured out how to make sure that we don't get shocked! LOL isn't that cute?
and, thoughtful <g>
