------------------------------------

1. What is the one thing your love does for you that you can't live without?

Honest? Do I hafta pick just one?

First...lemme just say...isn't it strangely awesome, how we go from being "a child" to being a spouse?

When, you go from having parents doing things for you (calling to fix flat tires, pick up some milk before they come visit, bail you out of jail, make medical decisions for you...etc, etc, and so on and so forth...) to, overnight, having those resposibilities fall on your spouse?

Wow...heavy stuff...

Anywho, (*speaking sharply out of corner of mouth*) answer the question Mama...can I say take out the garbage? :D

Alright, alright, alright...I could survive it he didn't do that...but, I couldn't survive if he didn't "get me". If he didn't love me just exactly the way he does.

There are so many little things that he does for me, that it's hard to pick just one. Breakfast in bed, cleaning up the house before I get home from work, pinching my butt, being a fabulous father to our children.

Actually, it's the last one that gets me.

Watching him be a daddy is one of the most wonderful things in the whole world.

Final answer...it's the fabulous dad part that I don't think I could survive without.

2. When did you know your love was "the one"?

By the 6 month mark, I knew he was my man.

It just took him longer to figure that out!! (like 27 months longer! I recently reported, erroneously (I love that word...) that it was a year and a half longer. Wrong. It was greater than two years longer. That dirty dog...)

We were on a date...and we stopped and "crashed" a local lakefront resort (just walked right in like we owned the place)...we snuggled by the lake on a chaise, and I knew...at that moment...that he was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.

3. Does your love have a special ringtone on your cell?

Nope...but, (please don't laugh) I don't know how to do that yet! I can't figure it out...and I can't find the time.

I'm too busy raising children and helping mothers "hee hee haw haw" their way to a beautiful baby and cooking meals and blogging and wiping butts to figure that out.

But, do you what he does have when he calls my phone?

This photo: (he's gonna die when he finds out I put this on here!!)

Sexy, huh?! :D

4. What are you attracted to most in your special someone?

Physically?

It's gotta be his forearms (no, not copying Pioneer Woman...I love my man's forearms too!!), or his smile...no, no...his incredibly dark eyes...no, wait...his knee caps...nope...nope, that ain't right...it's his wedding banded hand.

I dunno why...but there's just something so darn attractive about that ring on his big, manly hands that really does me in...or, as the aforementioned P-Dub says, "makes my heiny tingle".

Non-physical?

I'd go with his quiet sense of humor. He's not loud and obnoxious and boisterous, but when his sense of humor comes out...I'm usually laughing so hard I have tears.

Goofy stuff, like perfectly timed movie lines...or funny quotes.

And I'm a pile of fits and giggles!

I love him. Have I mentioned that?

5. Did you know when/where he/she was going to pop the big question?

Weeelllllll...kinda-not-really-sorta-maybe.

I'm a suspicious person. I think things are happening...when there is NOTHING happening.

So...a tiny little sliver of my mind gave a little flicker of "a ha!" when he mentioned hurting his hand.

But that's it...I really had no idea what to expect with my ultimatum reaching it's deadline...I knew what I hoped, which could be why that little flicker happened...but I really didn't know!

And dat be me answers, matey's! (Dat dar's a MinneSOOOta pirate talkin', dontchaknow?!)

Now, it's MckLinky time!
