30 Things My Kid Should Know About Me: Number 18

What do you think your spouse loves most about you?

It's interesting to think about the one thing that your dad loves most about me. I know that he loves lots of things about me, even though there are some things about me that drive him crazy. This would be easier to say what I love most about him but I suppose the point isn't to be easy but to make me think.

I would say that the thing your dad loves most about me is that I am always here to support him and make him know that he is accepted and loved for exactly who he is. Okay, so it's two things, but I'm sticking by it. Your dad and I have always had the type of relationship where we support each other and work together as a team in just about everything we do. We are always there for each other and have each other's backs. Your dad does so much for me and for you, since you have been a part of our lives and I always appreciate what he does, even though he would say that it isn't a big deal.

For the second part, your dad and I both went through periods of time where we didn't think that we were going to find someone that would love us for who we are. As I've shared in previous blog posts, your dad has always been accepting of me, my quirks, my weird "things," and who I am and who I might become. I feel the same way about your dad. I would never say that he is perfect, but as I say all the time, he is absolutely perfect for me, just the way he is. I make sure that he knows that and how much I love him for who he is and how wonderfully we work together.

Now I'm going to cheat even more. I would say another thing that your dad loves about me is that I make him laugh. Whether I'm making a joke or just being silly, I know that your dad laughs more with me than with anyone else. We laugh at a lot of the same things and like to be able to make each other laugh. Other people might not get what makes us laugh in different situations, but that hasn't ever really mattered to me. I love that we share that with each other.

So there are the top three things that I think your dad loves best about me. As I've said before, I'd love to see his response to this same topic.
