I got a comment yesterday on Parent Teacher Conference From Hell and it made me want to blog about it. The comment was from an anonymous party *I'm almost positive I know who it was, but they posted it as anonymous and probably don't want to be called out so I won't say anything about Oh... oops I almost gave a hint :P*. Any who... this comment said, "I am so glad I am not married to you!!!!!!!!!!!!" At first I was a little irritated with the comment, then I realized it has given me a good opportunity to tell you all a little about the bright side to my marriage. I often times rant about things and don't show enough praise, so thank you anonymous comment for giving me this wonderful opportunity! This one short little comment had me wondering.... why am I glad I married my husband and why my husband is glad he married me?
I can answer the first part.... even at his worst... he still loves me. He makes sure I have everything I need without question, he kisses me before he goes to work, he tells me he loves me everyday, he stands by me even when I'm wrong, he helps me with my internal demons, and he makes cute babies!
I asked my husband to answer this question for me and here is what he said, "You are a good person, you put up with my shit, you're sweet, and level headed. We are perfect for each other! We balance each other out. Besides, you have a cute ass."
I could have done without the last part, but I'm quoting him so I must put it in there. My husband and I make a good team, sure we fuss and fight, but we also know how to love one another. That's what makes us great!
So there you go Anonymous Commenter..... my husband and I are happy.... so I'm glad I'm not married to you either! :)

Glad this poster reminded you of the good things. Sometimes it's easy to forget when life gets in the way.
Kudos to you for letting us know that there are good things, too!
What a blessing it is sometimes that someone can get us to appreciate the important people and things around us, even if they did make a butthead comment.

Thanks for the Kudos!!! I'm glad I could share this with you guys too!

Sometimes I guess it takes a butthead comment.... I'll try to do better in the future.
House Wife: you really don't have to do "better." I love your stories just the way they are, I can totally relate, and the make me feel like I really am NOT alone. Your rants (while I know how pissed you must be when writing, sometimes) make me laugh because I can say to myself, "See, she's almost just like you!" or "OMG! I've done that, too!" Don't change nuttin', honey, that's why I read your blog!
Nancy Astor: “Sir, if you were my husband, I would give you poison.”
Winston Churchill: “If I were your husband I would take it.”
I just remembered the quote and thought I should share...
People are too quick to jump to conclusions. Those people are idiots!
Peace out!
...and he makes cute babies!
*chuckle* That would definitely be a perk! :)
prettygentleone: Thank you, I kind of needed that reassurance!
Faker: All I can say is awesome, I will be using those quotes!
MJ: Well he does... and it is :D
