Now this is love …

I had a strange but sweet dream last night …

I dreamt that Fred and I had been together (courting?) for 17 years–but that we were not yet married.
And I was longing to be married to him–and he to me.
And we were just about to get engaged or married or something and I woke up.

It was strange because, of course, we’re happily married. (Twelve years this August.)
But sweet because the dream reminded me of just how much I love Fred and long to be married to him.
(So what a gift that I am!)

And then I went into our bathroom to start my day and I found this great representation of how blessed I am to be married to Fred …
 

Our toothpaste tube had gotten to that “folded near the top into two tiny points and squeezed in the middle” stage that I really don’t like. And even though Fred didn’t get to bed until 11:30 or so (he’s doing some consulting work at night to help make up our family’s budget shortfall), he had re-rolled the tube so that it would be just the way I like it when I woke up in the morning.

Now THAT is love!

What a guy.
What a guy.

I hope that you have some evidence of grace and love in your life today too!

Your friend,
Tara B.
