I am that person who can't hide her expressions very well. It kinda sucks. Sean always says that he knows when to stop just by the expression on my face. I say it is my warning, sometimes a warning to stop or I can't be blamed for what I say or do.
The last few days at work have been a little much. I love my job but sometimes I just want to get up from my chair, stomp my feet and then scream. And of course sit right back down.
I am that person who can't hide what she is feeling in her voice. It is horrible. I can tell Sean I am OK and he just knows I am not. Once he knows I am not OK, I can whine a little bit and he will listen. He has even learned not to give me advice; he knows I don't want advice. I just want those adorable ears of his wide open.
Today, I was telling Sean how much I didn't want to go to the gym. I just wanted to relax at home after this long, dreadful day. Normally he would say, "Go to the gym, you're going to make a big deal about not going later".
Instead he told me, "Go home".
When we got home we cooked together and watched a movie on the couch. We didn't talk much. He actually would fall in and out of sleep during the movie. Typical.
But looking down at him with his head on my lap, it made me smile.
It made me smile because I can turn to this person at any time. No matter what, he would be there for me. He doesn't have to say much, his presence says it all.
I realize that a day at work won't always be pleasant; but when I go home I can expect to find a man who wants to keep my expressions and voice, happy.
I love this post Faith. So sweet and I can totally identify with you on that one. We are so blessed :)

It's like the happily-ever-after-ending to your day. But, it's everyday. That's pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteThis is just too sweet :)
ReplyDeleteVery sweet post Faith.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to have someone who is very understanding in your life. I can identify with too because just like you I can't hide emotions and Hubby is the person for me because he knows when I am in the state no words just cuddle. I wrote once that God knows me very well for sending me the right man in my life.

ReplyDeleteHow sweet. I love when couples get to the point when they're totally in sync with how to respond appropriately to their significant other in any situation :) Hope things at work improve for you over time!
ReplyDeleteGosh you said that so perfectly! Coming home to a man that just wants you to be happy is the best ever! So glad to hear you two are doing so great!! One year is just around the corner!
ReplyDeleteGreat post Faith!! It's it just so WONDERFUL to have that kind of man in your life?! I love that no matter how my day is at work, my evening with my husband is going to be amazing!
ReplyDeleteAwwww ;)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. This is exactly how love should be. You are a blessed woman :) The next time around (if I or God so desire) I will not settle for anything less. I love read about happily-ever-afters, especially when there is so many hurtful relationships in the world.
ReplyDeleteThis so sweet, hun... I feel the same way about my husband, too. I'm glad you take time out to enjoy those little moments, when you look at your husband and know he's there, to make you feel better - or to just make you happy, simply by being there. :)
ReplyDeleteHow sweet are you? Savor those small moments for sure! I love this post, it makes me appreciate my hubby that much more. Thanks so much for this :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE!!
ReplyDeleteTwo hearts created for each other's enjoyment. What a wonderful love story. Faith and Sean, I wish you the very best every day of your lives.
