Reason 158, 124, 16, 172, 159

Reason 158...

I certainly do not always appreciate my wife. I bitch about the house not being clean. The laundry not being done. The floor not swept. We fight and argue about it. We get over it. Repeat. But there are times when I need to sit back and reflect about what she does. How she does it and why she does it. I do appreciate her. And I should do more to show it. I love her, because she's WORTH appreciating. And she deserves to know it more often.

Reason 124...

My wife can be grumpy. She has her times. Sometimes she can be hard to "get along with". But I always do it. Because I love her. I'm more easy going, at the core, than she is and it's easier for me to let go of things. But let me tell you this, it's amazing that she even stays in the house when I'M grumpy. It's a miracle I think. 

Reason 16...

 I'm not mad, I'm passionate. I say that often, because I'm often passionate about things. I like to think it's the Lebanese and Italian in my blood, but mostly it's because I'm kind of an ass. I'm passionate about my opinions, my political stances, my social stances...but most of all, I think, I'm passionate about my family. About my wife and kids. And if my wife realizes that about me, then I think I'm doing my job. She makes it easy to be passionate about the life we've created. And I don't think I'll ever lose that passion. Especially for her.

Reason 172...

Hey, we all have our faults. I had to basically force my wife to learn how to drive. She's basically afraid to stand on the bed to turn the fan light out. She's overly anxious and dwells on the past too much. But, I'd have to start a whole new blog and max out my Google drive if I wrote about my faults. Somehow she overlooks them. And that's why I love her. 

Reason 159...

Honest Jon is probably my favorite guy. He's me, but totally honest. I usually announce when Honest Jon is going to make an appearance. Although he's honest, he is most likely going to sound like an asshole. It's amazing to me that my wife even let's Honest Jon in the house. But she must appreciate something about him. In this day and age of narcissism and "everybody gets a trophy," honesty is kind of hard to come by. I'm very thankful of the fact that my wife tolerates Honest Jon. Cause that guy's a dick.
