Okay, so a few weeks ago I did a little husband-bashing on our blog and many of you were very interested to know where the love had gone! (Read part one here) Maybe you read it because you were curious to see if our love was on the rocks or maybe you thought we might be in the same boat. Whatever the reason, some of you emailed, messaged and commented on the blog. I heard things from, “this is just the beginning” to “us guys are really trying” and I say amen to both of them!

I originally wrote the blog just for some fun and sarcasm because that is how our marriage works. We like to have fun with each other and tease about our so-called shortcomings because deep down, we really know that we are blessed. I wanted to do a follow up blog to address a couple of things that were pointed out to me from a reader. “We may have feeble attempts at showing our love, but we really are trying. Also, many of our everyday attempts to show our love go unnoticed and/or unrecognized.”

I have to say, I think he does have a point..sort of.  Sometimes, you do get it right and sometimes you try really hard. So, to my husband and all the other husbands out there who feel that their attempts at showing their love have gone unrecognized, we say thank you. Thank you for changing the diapers, for changing the oil, doing the dishes, for going to the grocery, for picking up your socks, for getting up in the night so we could sleep, for not mentioning the fact that we haven’t showered…again today, for the hug, for doing extra work around the house, for working so hard for our family, for being an awesome dad, for supporting us in our endeavors, for the knowing look and for just always being there.

For all of the other times. Keep trying!

Oh, and while we do like to get flowers for no reason other than you were thinking about us…we really don’t care about the cards, gifts or the pottery. We just like to bust your chops now and then to keep you on your toes!
