{Why Husbands Are Amazing}

It is currently 1 in the morning on a Saturday night, and Mike and I are right on the weekly schedule. Every Saturday around this time, Mike logs onto Xbox Live to play Call of Duty: Ghosts with his sister Nichelle and brother-in-law Andrew, and I play around on my phone or laptop and usually eat, then fall asleep on the couch until he is done. About a half hour ago, however, Mike was asleep on the couch and I was actually sad because I felt that the night had ended early. So, I turned COD on, woke my husband up, and handed him the controller.

Now, I know most of you girls probably think I'm nuts at this point, but I actually really like our late night Saturday routine. Instead of having an agenda, going to bed or working, I like just sitting here and paying attention to my husband as he is doing something he loves to do. Mike honestly doesn't even play that often, mostly just these Saturday nights. But since we have gotten married, this is what almost every Saturday at one in the morning has consisted of, and I honestly do LOVE IT! 

So, how I got the idea to write this is just because I am sitting right next to and slightly behind my husband whom I love very much and I can't help but to think why husbands (and boyfriends too) are just so amazing.

1. Husbands are strong enough to carry you to bed when you fall asleep on the couch

2. Husbands seem to always be awesome at BBQ-ing

3. Husbands usually always are the ones driving when both of you are in the car together

4. Husbands tell you that you are pretty, even when you're wearing sweats, a big t-shirt, glasses and no make up

5. Husbands make the best gym partners

6. Husbands insist you spend money getting your nails and hair done, just because they know it makes you happy.

7. Husbands will watch 10 of your chick flicks before you watch one of their action films, just because they love you.

8. Husbands always let you pick off their plate

9. Husbands know the little things that you love, like stuffed giraffes or fruit cocktail..

10. Husbands don't mind that you have a huge bowl of mint chocolate chip ice cream "because you're a emotional girl" (that's always my excuse)

11. Husbands randomly get you flowers and use the cute, cheesy line that we all love that "the flowers aren't as pretty as you though"

12. Husbands always let you order whatever you want when you go out to eat

13. And on that note, it's super impressive when your husband automatically knows how to order your burger when you are in the bathroom. (Medium well, no tomato, pickle or onion, with fries and a side of ranch. He actually impressively did this when we had only been dating like a month).

14. Husbands will take selfies with you, even if they don't want to.

15. Husbands know EXACTLY what to do when you are sad and know that their hugs pretty much make everything instantly better.

I could go on and on and on (believe me) about why husbands are amazing, but I thought that 15 was a good number to end at. Now, I know that some people think these all aren't true. They may not be about your husband, but they are about mine. And I am sure that there are some things about your husband or boyfriend that you love that my husband doesn't do. But this isn't about comparison; it's more to just state some things that I love about my Michael Anthony Gabriella and why I am the luckiest girl in the world to have found him. I hope everyone is happy in the marriage they are in and always remember the reasons why you got married.
