Quicken – Daily Prompt

I’m not a teenager by a long shot, I’m a 54 year old woman who is madly in love with my husband. My heart will quicken when I hear his truck drive up from work as if I were a teenager. I get excited to see him, to tell him about my day. I am lonely when he is away. Even after over 28 years, I have these wonderful feelings about this man. So having him feeling bad over the last few weeks has been really hard on me and my health. I’ve been overly stressed and it is taking a toll on my bladder.

My husband is the sweetest, kindest person I know. He gives me his attention, his time, his patience and his love. He takes care of me and watches out for me in all situations.

He has driving many miles to take me to doctors, to hospitals, to clinics. He never has a cross word about my health or inability to do housework. He is handsome and sexy too! I am beyond blessed to have this man in my life. He is a part of me at this point in our lives. I don’t think I could live without him. Blessed! I am blessed!
