I'm Lovin' That Man of Mine

It's almost 11pm, don't ask me why I felt the need to blog. After a fun but busy day (more on that later) I just can't stop thinking about my sweet hubby.

We all know what a control freak I can be. Knowing that, I should ask myself why I put myself in situations that I can't control?
Chris and I went rollerblading with my friend Jill tonight. I have such a fear of hills. It's the control, or lack there of that scares me. I really hate the feeling of not being able to stop or balance or protect those around me who might need me. Anyhow, I do it anyway so that I can spend time with Chris doing something he enjoys or being with friend in good conversation.
Back to the hill stuff. As I'm going down, all I have to do is ask Chris to save me. He really acts as a night in shining armor, swooping in when I think I've lost all control. He tries to teach me along the way, and show me despite my resistance. I just love that about him.
As we headed UP hill to our house, I tried to sneak ahead and beat him. He won't ever let me win. I also love that about him!

I guess your need to blog at 11 pm is the same as my need to blog at 12:32 am! ;p

I love it Em, that you are doing something you really don't care for except to do it because Chris loves it! The next time Charlie asks me to watch a basketball game with him ~ I will (w/o grudge!).. Love it!

Great blog...I really enjoy looking at it and keeping up with your family. Glad you went rollerblading again!

The only thing I won't do for John just because I love him is go camping (the way his family camps...) But anything else, I'm there.

Sweet post.

Rollerblading was fun and I am glad Chris was there to save you because as you know I couldn't have done it! We would have fallen together. Love your blogs....keep up the good work.
