Ode to My Valentine

The Notebook- My Fav Romantic Movie

This is a salute to my husband that I dearly love. This wonderful man does so much to make my life sweet.

He greets me each and every morning, while I am still snuggled under the covers, with a hot cup off coffee and says, "Good Morning, my love."

When I quit my high-paying sales job with a company car and great benefits, he supported me.  My last day, he met me at the front door with champagne and a toast, "To your new life!"

He answers every phone call with,"Hello, my love" ends every phone conversation with, "I love you".

He calls everyday to ask, "What do you need?"

Last week, I mentioned I didn't have enough money for my favorite Bacon and Ranch Grilled Chicken Salad at McD's. The next morning he left $25 cash next to my keys.

Yesterday, I received 2 dozen long stem roses.  The card read "Forever and Always. To my beautiful wife."

The Valentine's roses are not unusual. However, I have had a funky, nasty, ugly cold sore (I mean it is REALLY bad) on and under (TMI?) my nose for the last week.  I called to thank him for the roses and sweet card.  "I feel so ugly.  It was really sweet for you to call me 'beautiful'."

He replied, "I ordered the flowers before you got your cold sore." And we both fell into fits of laugher.

He is super thoughtful but his sense of humor is the most precious to me.  Happy Valentine's Day, my love!

Happy Valentine's y'all!

  1. So sweet and so funny. I have never laughed with anyone like I do with my husband. I love him for that. Hope you have a great day despite you know what.

  2. This sweet post brought tears to my eyes...I'm guessing there's a lot of equality in your sweet world together...two x 2 = xoxoxox

    1. Awww Gina, that is so sweet that it brought tears to your eyes. Yep, there is equality. We refer to it as "Team Beam"--corny, but works for us.

  3. I can attest to this fact. He loves you very much, and he is a wonderful man. And neighbor. And my hubs is out of town this week for work. :(

  4. Good men like that are hard to find - but there must be two of them because my husband is exactly the same (without the roses). Always calls me beautiful when I'm feeling the frumpiest. Sometimes I wonder who he's looking at.
