My man of action...

This morning as I was getting breakfast ready, I looked up and saw the flowers that Greg had given me the night before he went to New York last week.

 It got me to thinking how lucky and grateful I am to be married to such an amazing man.  He is a man of few words, but a wonderful man of action.  He tells me everyday that he loves me. It is something I need and want to hear. He writes beautiful poetry when the mood strikes him.  He isn't one for a lot of "flowery" "mushy" talk.  But he shows me he loves me every single day.  He is my "Man of Action" hero!!  Yesterday alone he went shopping (Saturday shopping is one of my least favorite things to do.) and got shelves so he could clean up and organize the storage room.  He got me a new mouse since mine isn't working, he got me a new power cord that actually will hold all the plugs I try to plug in by my bed. (and more importantly showed me how to use it) He got (and installed) privacy window film for our bedroom window because I had told him I was tired of the piece of material that we had been using. He is always doing little and big things for me. He takes the kids to school everyday, in the mini-van, he calls me from work to check on me.  He calls me before he comes home to see if I need anything. He shovels the driveway in the freezing cold, he takes the cars in to be fixed, he takes the kids to run errands so I can have some quiet time, he takes out our bathroom garbage that I manage to fill on a daily basis, he comes home from working all day and will grill dinner for me,  he knows I am not a morning person - so he gets the kids up and going in the mornings. All day, everyday he is constantly showing me that he loves me. The list literally goes on and on and on.

So as I am daydreaming and thinking about how wonderful he is I am not paying attention to what I am doing and proceed to cut my finger as I am slicing the bagel.  I drop the knife and bagel and Greg asks if I cut myself. (Yes, he was laughing, but I love the man) He then immediately goes and gets me a band aid because he is my man of action!!!

I appreciate him and all he does to show his love. I am one lucky and extremely spoiled and loved woman!
