An e-mail from the hubby. (I hate the word hubby.)
It makes me feel like I'm sleeping with a Saturday morning cartoon character. (Young Lola's version of this song went, "Gummy bears, bouncing here and there and everywhere, they're not even wearing underwear...")
I also don't enjoy the terms "wifey" or "The Mrs." One time, as a joke, Dan called me "Mother" and I called my lawyer. Still, it's e-mails like the following one he sent me the other day, that make me enjoy him so.

You in?
I'm in.
It just started snowing. Perfect. Last night I changed into my jammies at 7pm and we ordered Chinese food, shared a bottle of red and watched a movie. After we toasted I said, "This is what I hoped being married would be."
Same goes for this weekend...
Love,
The Old Ball and Chain

Love you guys!
We love you too, Benny. Hopefully you'll be able to make it out this way so we can go to that Christmas store because I think you need it for nourishment. For the Mellederers, it's all about the small moments. And, btw, we had travel mugs of wine at the Christmas parade so at least we felt somewhat like adults. Great, great weekend.
