Last year I did 100 things I love about the Computer Guy.\u00a0 It\u2019s a pretty comprehensive list, but I\u2019d like to add a few things.<\/p>\n
50. I snored louder than anyone when I was pregnant with #6, you still slept in the same bed with me.
49. I invited complete strangers to Thanksgiving dinner, and all you wanted to know was where to put the extra chairs.
48. You hate the snow, but took the children outside for a snowball fight at Christmas.
47. I take all of your traditional family recipes and tweak them.\u00a0 You always say you like it better the way I make it.
46.You like your salad dry.\u00a0 (It makes me laugh.\u00a0 I don\u2019t know why.)
45. You pester the children to fold the laundry, and then redo it so that it\u2019s done right.
44. You still play that dumb Star Wars game.
43. One of the reasons you want to move back to Texas is so that we can live closer to my grandmother.
42. The way you look in a baseball cap.
41. You have your big comfy recliner in the living room, but you never say a word when I steal your spot.
40. The baby sleeps with us because it\u2019s easier on me, and most of you is okay with that.
39. The part of you that isn\u2019t because you just want to curl up with your wife.
38. You\u2019ve patted all our babies to sleep with the \u201ctha-dump\u201d rhythm of a heart beat.
37.\u00a0 You hate broccoli.\u00a0 When I make it with dinner you always eat some so as to be a good example to the children.
36. You think they don\u2019t notice when you spit it into your napkin.
35. You separate you socks into different drawers based on color.
34. Part of what I liked about my new computer was its red color.\u00a0 You may have rolled your eyes, but you never said a word.
33. You supported me with my writing, even when it was just this blog, and you will continue to support me even if the stupid blog is all it ever is.
32. No matter how big I dream for myself, you always dream bigger.
31. You go to all of #1\u2019s basketball games, and actually know all the players and their stats.
30. When she cheers, you know all the words.
29. You go to #2\u2019s gymnastics meets and know all of his teammates and cheer them all on.
28. When #4\u2019s front tooth died and turned dark, you told her how beautiful her smile was.
27. You swore you\u2019d never sell anything for the kids at the office, then #4 became a girl scout.\u00a0 You sold over 100 boxes of cookies in one day.
26. When the Middle East offices call with computer problems in the middle of the night, you take just as much time helping them as you do the people who call during the day.\u00a0 They need your help, you help.\u00a0 I love that.
25. When #3 was in the hospital, you rubbed his back and kept him calm all night.\u00a0 I never felt badly that his mom wasn\u2019t there because he had his dad.
24. #5 loves to sit on your lap.\u00a0 You always find room for him.
23. When the children go to spend the night with friends you always miss them and wish they were home.
22. My ring tone on your phone is \u201cRock you like a hurricane.\u201d\u00a0 You\u2019re a nut.
21. You know that only good Mexican food has orange grease.
20. You laugh at me when I sing along with the music in stores, but never ask me to stop.
19. You thank me at least once a week for being your wife.
18. You steal the warm blankets every night, and apologize for it every morning.
17. You dim the lights in the bathroom when you get ready for work so that the baby and I can sleep a little later.
16. You finally got a cute car to drive, and act as if you\u2019re spoiled because of it.
15.\u00a0 You waited 14 years to get to buy a 12 year old car.\u00a0 You\u2019re not spoiled.\u00a0 You\u2019re patient.
14. You say grace before every meal, including the Sign of the Cross.\u00a0 Every meal, no matter where.
13. I started wearing a mantilla.\u00a0 You don\u2019t get it, but you kind of like it anyway.
12. Your daughter started wearing a mantilla and you decided that all this modesty was a good thing.
11. You\u2019re not social;I am.\u00a0 We have people over for dinner often and you\u2019re always gracious.
10. You remember everyone\u2019s name, even when I don\u2019t, which is all the time.
9. You futz around with the fountain on the front porch all summer because you know I like the stupid thing.
8. I wanted a netbook, you thought I needed a laptop.\u00a0 You listened to my reasoning and got me what I wanted, even though it made no sense to you.
7. There is no place you\u2019d rather be than in our living room with our whole family, just hanging out.
6. You go find special blankets and stuffed animals at bedtime without them even asking.
5. I have annoying family members, you love them anyway just because they belong to me.
4. You read all of your grandfather\u2019s Louis L\u2019Amour books and dream of a time before computers.
3. You\u2019re sarcastic.
2. You know that our main job is to help each other become saints.
1. You\u2019re so much closer to that than I am, but with your help I\u2019ll make it.<\/p>\n
