30 Days/30 Reasons

I'm getting married in exactly 30 days.

Here's 30 reasons why I love my (almost) husband.

1. I can sing in front of him...loud and often...and he never tells me I suck.
2. He loves my cat as much as I do.
3. He's a feminist.
4. He cleans up pretty and looks devilishly handsome in a suit.
5. I have absolutely no doubts that he will be an amazing father.
6. Phish.
7. We both think farts are hilarious.
8. He treats his mother and sister with respect.
9. He will never buy me roses or a diamond or anything pink. (if you know me at all, you know that that's a good thing in my book)
10. He's a beautifully gifted musician, artist, and photographer.
11. He let's me be Player A on the nintendo.
12. He kisses me goodbye...always.
13. He never yells, never calls people names, never makes me feel inadequate.
14. I once saw him looking at a very skinny, pretty girl in the grocery store. He then turned to me with a concerned look and said, "That poor girl needs to eat a sandwich."
15. He's not perfect.
16. He's secure enough in his sexuality to wear kilts, lederhosen, and bowties.
17. Free symphony and opera tickets : )
18. My sisters love him and get along with him so well that he is often referred to as the "4th Sister"
19. We disagree and bicker about stupid little things...but the big things, the life-defining political, social, religious, philosophical views...we rock-solid agree.
20. He's not the same guy he was when I met him. Nor am I the same. We give each other room to evolve.
21. He is a patient teacher.
22. He always likes what I cook.
23. He is honest. No need for secrets.
24. There's this funny thing that happens to him when he tries to make a silly voice.
25. He writes letters to the editors/senators/assembly representatives.
26. He's not embarrassed to buy me tampons.
27. He doesn't get angry if someone breaks something of his even if it is expensive or important because "in the long run....it's just stuff."
28. He has good taste in music, movies, beer, and friends.
29. He's not afraid to get his hands dirty or clean up cat barf.
30. He makes me laugh every day.
