"Ain't love grand?" It may sound silly, but Kent has only been gone for four days and I miss him already. He'll be home in two days and I'm feeling like a giddy schoolgirl anticipating his arrival. Absence really does make the heart grow fonder. He always brings me something that he gets for "free' at his conferences and tries to pawn it off on me as a nice present. Ha! I always play along and then call him on it later.
Good thing he is such a great husband,Dad and spiritual example. Besides I really don't need anything. After all, what I really need is someone to take the garbage out and pick up the dogs' presents in the back yard!
It reminds me of a Valentine card my Mom gave my Dad years ago. Two oldsters each in their own bed with sleep masks on, and one calls to the other, "Is that you Bart? It's nice to know you are there." We are actively fighting the inclination in that direction.
That's why I have a "weekend" planned for us real soon. That is when we can work around, Church, High Council, Coast Guard, my Na Kamalei board meetings, gardening and being available to greet our guests. If we didn't have so many committments, I'd have to find some mischief to get into!
Bonnie,
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to find a link to your blog. Steven and I have got Hawaii on the list of future destinations. Thank you again for the generous invitation to stay with you. I know we'll get there some day! I will enjoy hearing about your adventurous lives from your blog.
I'll keep in touch.
