Friday, I have been waiting for you since Monday. Actually, if I am being honest, I have been waiting for you since last Friday. Yesterday was this handsome fella's birthday. Originally I had planned to do this super-mushy-gushy post on his actual birthday. Clearly, that never happened; I'm going to blame it on pregnancy exhaustion. Plus, now I can incorporate "Five on Friday" and a post all about my husband into one. I'd say I am winning, wouldn't you?
Here goes five things that you don't know about my husband; hopefully he doesn't read this.
-One-
My husband is all about music. He can't play an instrument and he couldn't sing if his life depended on it. However, the boy knows how to find good music. When said music is found he listens to the album over and over and over again. Let me rephrase that, we listen to the album over and over and over again. For example, ever since Cold Play's new album "Ghost Stories" came out we have been listening to it every.single.day. No exaggeration. Inside the house, on the patio, and in the car. He listens to the album until he gets sick of it, or, until the next great album comes out, whichever one comes first.
-Two-
He is the first and only guy I have ever met that does not like sports. Basketball? Nope. Football? Nope. Soccer? Nope. You name the sport and he doesn't like it. Unless you'd call having a beer in the backyard a sport. This does not bother me one bit. I am quite content with having him all to myself. Actually, I think I hit the husband jackpot.
-Three-
I don't think there is anyone out there with better mouth hygiene than he. It doesn't matter what time we get home from an outing, be it 11:00 PM or 3:00 AM he won't go to bed without flossing. His dedication to the care of his teeth is impressive. I mean, who do you know flosses their teeth after a few drinks? Well, now you know one person: My husband.
-Four-
The inside of his car is spotless. If you were to step inside you'd think he had just left the dealership parking lot, for.the.first.time. Actually, the inside AND the outside are always clean. If we are going out to dinner he HAS to get his car washed. I tell him it is a sickness and that when baby O comes all that is going to change. Hmm, should I tell him about the amount of cheerios he will find in his backseat? Nah, let him figure that one out for himself.
-Five-
When I tell you who his celebrity crush is, you are going to think I am lying. Unlike many young men his age who would name the likes of Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Lawrence, and Amber Heard his choice is completely unorthodox. If you were to ask who his celebrity crush is he'd immediately respond with, "Meryl Streep, of course." And no, I am not kidding. The boy loves his Meryl. He will proceed by saying, "Have you seen The Bridges of Madison County?" It is just the cutest thing ever. I mean, Meryl, really. Ahh, how I love that man.
There you have it folks, five things you did not know about my husband. And, babe, if you are reading this, happy birthday, again. I can't stress how much I love you.

And, of course I am linking up with Carolina Charm and A. Liz Adventures.
There are small things that happen day to day that constantly remind me of how lucky I am to have you as my best friend and spouse in this crazy journey called life, and I would have to say that this tops that list... if trends prove to be true, something else will come along, very soon, i'll look forward to the next one.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this great post. Don't ever stop being you and I won't ever stop loving you.
