Husband's
#1 - The gift of fear and trust - On a walk with the fam, Big Sonny ran ahead of us around the campus sidewalks. Suddenly, the tornado alarm wailed from atop the campus building right next to where he was. Petrified, mouth open, eyes wide, too stunned and scared for tears, he sprinted (faster than I've ever seen)... right into his daddy's arms.
He didn't cry, just buried his head in mine. I didn't tell him anything except that he was okay. In his moment of fear, it was a great moment of who he trusts.
(Note: He would have run to mom too! She was just holding the Little Boy!)
#2 - The gift of anticipation - Sometimes the anticipation is better than the payoff. Waiting for the basketball season is often better than the season itself, waiting for the games to start in this tournament week is often the most exciting part. With the game's starting tomorrow, "I'm excited and nervous, can't sleep in my bed." (from "Bally's Dream" by Kyle Whelliston)
#3 - The gift of anticipation fulfilled - I've been looking forward to the "Reading Weekend" for a month or more. Tomorrow it arrives. G. Rap - here we come! (Time alone with you Wifey Dear, is the best!)
