Tonight my husband got into a TV block and watched Madeas Family Reunion. Not the funniest or in depth moive. Except for the last half hour. At the reuion one of the elder aunts was explaining to a niece the love she had for her husband. The niece was engaged to a greedy, controling and beating man. They family knew how he was and was waiting for the niece to admit to it. Anyway, the elder aunt described her life with her husband. She described how she would be about to say a thought and her husband would say what she was about to say. She described how her husband and her could sit for hours and not talk but could relate by movements and touch. When they slept at night, they always touched for the connection and feeling of each others skin and breathing. She also stated that at the time it drove her crazy because she felt that her husband wasn't listening to her and just saying things to keep her happy.
Until her husband died. Then she realized that she was married to her soul mate, her friend and her lover. At this point, my husband made a deep sighing noice and I looked over. HE had tears in his eyes. Of course, I loved hearing a love for ones husband described so lovingly. Husband grabed my shoulder and said he never heard what he felt for me described so exactly. Except he said at night while we are sleeping, he likes to feel my heartbeat because it seems to match his.
WHAT?? This is my husband. He has NEVER expressed his love for me the way he did tonight (even if it was it someone elses words). Of course I know he loves me. I would never doubt it. But for him to react to the description in this movie the way he did means he actually does at times think about not only me but us. And the us part is more important than the me part.
Not only that, but he id taking me out to dinner tomorrow night for Valentine's Day. We have not done that in about 10 years. What is going on? Usually I make a sinner for us after the kids eat. No, he wants to go out alone. Hopefully a bomb doesn't drop because Hubby never expresses himself the way he did tonight. Should I be warned for tomorrow night? No, I'm going to cherish my husbands words tonight and love our time alone tomorrow night.
