The Little Things

It's so easy to fall into a rut, take things for granted, or not even notice things that you should be noticing. You both work, come home tired or your mind is running a mile a minute thinking about what the next day will bring. We have a bad day and unintentionally take it out on the other. We all fall into this in one way or another. The thing is, we can't get lazy. We must climb out. To make a marriage work, you gotta work it. Sometimes it's easy, other times....not so much. But you have to do it. Where is this coming from???? Yesterday morning, it was cold and raining, we woke up the a flat tire on my Explorer. Was it a big deal to me....no. William always fixes it. But this particular morning, he had to bundle all up, move the boat out of the shop, he got soak and wet. Then he decided to go ahead and change the oil while he was in there. On top of that, this morning he calls just to make sure I got to work ok. He takes care of me so well. These are the kinds of things I sometimes take for granted. The everyday things. When I get home today I plan on showing him my appreciation.
