Dearly Beloved

Day 16:

The Mrs. and I have already chosen our children’s names. We’re nowhere near ready to have them, but we’re pretty confident with what we’ll call them.

The one area of conflict is the spelling of a girl’s name. For the sake of holding onto something we know that no one else does, I’m not gonna share it with you. But I will tell you that my way is right.

I bring this up because I saw that name with ‘my’ spelling on something today and I brought it to her attention.

She laughed as I spoke of it because I made no introduction of the topic of conversation. I simply said,
“Stop the press. Do you know the name of the company that makes this thing?”
Mrs: No.
Me: It’s blank. And they spell it my way! See I win.

And then she laughed.

Today I (re)learned that I like making my Mrs. laugh.

Today I (re)learned that laughing with a loved one is not only important, it’s also therapeutic.


Looking forward to laughing from this day forward…til death do us part...
