Twenty-Five Things I Love About My Wife

[cahwyguy]

I few years ago saw a post on LJ that suggested an interesting tradition for anniversaries: For each year that you are married, post one thing that you love about your spouse. We were married in 1985, so this year marks year Nº 25:

1. I love that she keeps her head in a crisis.


2. I love that she knows how to calm me down when I start panicking.


3. I love that she helps me think logically when dealing with big ticket
   items or expenses.


4. I love that she knows how to think through situations logically.


5. I love that she is a very loyal friend, going out of her way to help
   others.


6. I love that she is able to express herself very well, and convey
   information the information to others in ways they can understand.

   gluten-free dishes.

    days and my working on the highway pages.


13. I love the needlecrafting and fabric arts that she does.


14. I love that she knows how to deal with our daughter when I'm getting
    frustrated.


15. I love that she is active in our daughter's school life.


16. I love that she is willing to deal with family situations I don't
    want to deal with.


17. I love that she is willing to deal with contractors and repair
    critters.


18. I love that she doesn't spend too much on quilting and fabric
    supplies :-).

25. I love that she and I can have wonderfully intelligent conversations.

Of course, this list doesn't include the things I love about her that I can't post on LiveJournal :-). Maybe next year. You'll just have to wait and see.
