I'm not. (And that may well bring on more tears.) But coming to the end of this post and seeing that picture has made me cry. For the sweetness of the gesture, definitely, but most of all... For the <i>love</i>. PS. What's with us ladies, anyway? PPS. We're ladies. <i>That's</i> what's with us. I wish I were crying because I was pregnant.

For the love.

One side tip...if you think the bulbs and batteries collude, wait till you see what cars can do if you leave them alone in the driveway long enough! On one of my husband's 6-month deployments, I managed to kill ALL FOUR CARS. The last one died the day before poor hubby came home. I left our dead Taurus at Enterprise and we all picked up Daddy in a rental car. The cars conspired to break down. Really they did. Lissa, you’d make a great Navy wife!

It made me tear up. If you can you should get your hands of Stuart Maclean's story Love Never Ends from The Vinyl Cafe Unplugged. It will make you laugh and cry, especially if your husband leaves you chocolate bars. This was lovely. It made me tear up.
