I Just Really Dig Him

"There you go, honey, your holes are all dug. Now we can put your new shrubs in as soon you go pick them out."

I tossed down the pitchfork, with which I'd been flipping and fluffing mulch at the base of a maple tree, and hurried over to plant a grateful and passionate kiss on my sweet husband's lips.

"What was that for?" he asked, steadying himself.

"For digging those three great holes for me," I answered, smiling.

"Oh, okay," he said, grabbing up his shovel with enthusiasm. "Where would you like your canal?"

DAYUM, I wonder what he'd do for chocolate cake, cuz I wouldn't feel right kissing him, but I sure could use someone like that here on The Avenue.

I think this should be in the Guide to Marital Bliss Handbook. Seriously! It's amazing how a little, or not so little thank you kiss can go a long way in having a successful marriage.
