Kissing my forehead whenever I'm worried about something.

Cutting up my sandwich for me! Teeheee. Frickin adorable. :)

mutual respect

We still both say be careful or be safe to each other

In hindsight it is the little things.....like her smile, her voice, her laugh, her immature silliness that used to drive me crazy and eventually had me yelling "grow the **** up!" and to which she would laugh because she knew she got to my core. LOL! Her gifted insight to see things in the future. The fact that she always remembered me when she was out of the house and brought little gifts home. Her stealing my clothes just to wear them and to feel close to me. The little things....*nods.

spending 30 mins pruning and weeding to get to the back of the blackberry bushes because that is where the big ripe berries lived...

My girl does love blackberries

It is the little things like...

Strong, welcoming and enveloping arms

The kindest, most loving eyes that have ever looked upon me

Smiles that melted the the most protected and afraid heart into a puddle of joy

:cheer:

When he says things like, "I love you; you can have whatever you want," and all I want is him.

Text reminders that she is thinking of you

...his caring for my comfort enough to carry beach chairs, umbrella and a cooler of cold drinks down to the beach

...his noticing that the back yard was getting scruffy and mowing and edging it completely just because it needed it

...his putting gas in my car...paying and pumping...because it needed doing and the smell of gas makes me feel icky

...him assembling the new fans....rather than me doing it and cussing. I can assemble stuff and have done a ton with this house, but it stresses me out and he knows it

...him running to the store for ice and bread because we need them, instead of expecting me to do it

...talking about building raised beds, and the kiwis and tomatoes and peppers we will grow

...it's having a partner in life....the "we're in this together" and working together towards a goal and handling the tasks of daily life together kind

:stillheart:

That He offers to help me get comfy on the bed with the heating pad because He knows I hurt THAT bad...

That He stands patiently in the makeup section while I pick out what I want/need... and then pays for it even though He doesn't need to

That He HELPS.. with cleaning, cooking, picking up around the house, etc.

When His hand rests on the small of my back while we walk through the store

That He thinks of AWESOME dates, like going to the batting cages!

showing that I care for her by waking up with her in the morning on my day off to spend time with her and make her some breakfast before she leaves for work. It's little things like "actions" sometimes.. I didn't miss a drop of sleep, loved the conversation and took advantage of the time together being we work conflicting schedules. :)

her leaving notes on my car for me to find. :)

her being happy makes me happy!

For me being single, I don't need a partner to appreciate the little things....
Listening instead of tuning out

Making me laugh

Distracting me from stress instead of adding to it

Taking me to breakfast and helping with chores

True worry for our comfort ...making sure we have what we need to live comfortable ...like getting pharmaceuticals we need and necessary things for home

Not pushing my boundaries and respect when I need space (physical and emotional)

(The next wasn't done by a partner or companion, but done by a very respectful young man that drove all the way from another county to help me)...changing my oil on a blistering hot day without complaint or grumbling ....driving many miles to meet me at house.

waking up and having the coffee ready
sitting on hys lap facing hym, trimming hys hair
taking care of all the little things when hy has too much on hys mind
a suttle wink and smile ~ showing ur proud
making hys fav.meal in a healthy way
knowing when hy needs me.

My kids waking up super early a getting in bed with me just to snuggle a bit before we have to start our day.

Getting sweet texts periodically throughout the day from my love.

Reading books with the kidlets before bed.

Snuggling with my love and watching tv (like big bang theory) before we go to bed.

Waking up late for work, only to find out that she made me coffee and packed my lunch, so I'm really not running behind.

its the little things like
a brush of the hand on the hip in the morning
a cuddle before coffee
dinner for two or three or 5
a shared picnic
watching a movie together
a simple good morning how are you?
the dinner hour conversation
its in all the little moments that make up the day

Texts before bed, even when he's very busy, to say goodnight and sweet dreams.

The way she touches my arm when she talks to me.
A visit at my work with a cold/hot drink all depends on the weather.
The way she smiles at me.
All the notes and texts.

Smelling her cologne on the pillow after she's left for work. <swoon>

Waking up in the middle of the night and realizing the two of you fell asleep holding hands. <le swoon>

Making sure her t-shirts are organized just so...because she likes them that way. ;)

Finger painting I love you in the dust on her windshield. HEY! We live in the desert!! ;)

When she's bent over installing new wood floors, sticking a celery stick in her butt crack. HEY! No judgement! <she HATES celery!!!>

Getting up with the dogs and taking them for a walk so she can sleep in a bit longer.

Just looking into her beautiful eyes and feeling my heart skip a beat. Every. Single. Time. :blush:

Text messages like this...

"I am glad we found each other."

"I want to go to bed everynight with you and wake up next to you."

:heartbeat:

:heartbeat:

:heartbeat:

Coversations like this...

"So pup, how do the new curtains look? Do they match the new rugs ok or would the other curtains have been better?"

(grumbles) "You were right, they look really good."

"I thought they would. This is what happens when you have a femme girlfriend."

"I know and I do not always mind it when you are right things like this. But I am still going to growl at you."

I would epect nothing less pup."

:sparklyheart:

It's the little things like.....

Still reaching over to hold my hand...after almost 10 years she still makes my heart sing!:blush:

Knowing I am going to have a meeting that I am nervous about and sending me on my way with a mantra that is simply perfect! Hy doesn't tell me what to do or how to do it. Hy supports my doing it in my own way and time.

Today
 

Like appreciating my efforts to give you the freedom to experience. What works for me may not always work for you... It's not my job to tell you what to do or how to do it... It is, however, my pleasure to support you and your experiences in life.
:wine: Relax Doll, this day is done... :rrose:

The little things like setting a phone date to watch a movie together. Remembering the bread she like and making sure its here when she gets here.
Knowing that she is the world to me and I am to her.
Little things like asking if I want something from the kitchen and vice versa.


We have so many little things it hard to really list them all. However they are the things we do without really thinking about then due to all the bad we have had in past.

I shall remember to continue to do the little things for her to show her just how much she means to me.

getting me coffee and / or making my coffee in the a.m.

picking up some groceries for me while she's at the store.

asking each other every day how our day is even though we see each other!

:)

She is my sunshine and she calls me her Rock. :)

The cute little nicknames you call each other.

The way she smiles when she's up to something.
