You know, while we're on a roll with "new thread" creations, how about...my worst ASSumptions??? I think this one would be #1!!!
I know what you mean about missing certain phrases when they are conspicuously (perhaps just to us? ) absent. A couple of nights in a row, CJ didn't say his usual ILY when we said good night. He usually says it first, then me.
It bothered me, made me wonder. But it didn't signify anything as the ILY's returned...but I THINK I might have said it first...
Does your H usually say these things first? I wonder if every now and again they want US to? Makes some sense, doesn't it?
Take care!!

P.S. I think the connection you two share...timely hugs and such...speaks at least as loud as words...maybe more
