ok something is wrong with the last pg of my thread..it's all streched out and I can't reply fromt there so hoping this works.

I want you all to know that I AM celebrating the fact that h threw the phone out the window...I'm just not throwing a party over it.

things have been going very well...I understand that the fears I have are "normal" and that as time goes by they will diminish...

here's a bit you may want to give me kudos for (not that I'm looking the smile I got from h was kudos enough)

as I've said...h is a landscaper...we have a large yard that is unfinnished (new home) so I've talked about taking down some more trees in front to give a better view of the house on approach...yesterday as h was chopping wood much to my surprise some trees started falling down...then h proceeded to suit up with spiked shoes, saftey glasses, a hard hat and a rope and climbed the big tree to cut off the limbs before dropping it...I snapped a couple pictures of him while he was straddling the tree.

later in the evening I commented on my surprise to see the first tree comming down and how cool it was to see him climbing the second..h thought no big deal...I said no way..I was looking at you thinking yup! that's my man!! h smiled and kissed my nose.

h never thought I appreciated all the work he did around the house or rather as he put it I never let him do it or complained about it...well that was because I never got a free moment for myself couldn't even have 5 min to take a shower...I had to tend to son while h tended to whatever he "needed" to do...I had and have things to do in the house that I couldn't get too cause I had to mind son.

I was always proud of the way our yard looked and I did compliment him on it too...but as we all know...h doesn't take compliments well.
