HIgh Levels of Acceptance

[sage]

Another great day yesterday...got some things accomplished at work, had some good conversations with h. He was off to study group last night so I did stuff around the house -- got a bunch done! Hung some baskets with flowers in them in the front of the house, created a giant planter with pansies in it on the edge of the driveway, and washed the windows on the front porch in preparation for some lazy days out there!

So, positive #1 is the sense of accomplishment I got!

Positive #2 is around h's reaction -- he was very complimentary and excited -- said "oh honey, that's so beautiful!" -- couldn't believe I got so much done.

Positive # 3 -- well, um, h uttered the B word last night -- as in "why don't we have one?". My reaction was a deer in headlights look...not because I haven't tossed the idea around myself in my head (we had a 30 second conversation about it the other day after leaving my sis's house) but because I don't think I've heard him ever say it with, well, so much enthusiasm before.

He said "we don't have to talk about it now. let's think about it." then said "I think you'd be a great mom. we'd be a good team."

then he went on to tell me about some mental planning he'd been doing regarding landscaping our back yard.

It's amazing to me how future/house/us oriented he is now...seems so interested in "building" with me -- in all kinds of ways.

So...it's an interesting, intriguing, downright terrifying thought. Gonna let it sit for a bit in my brain.
