I'd love to explain why I have such an interest in your blog! Should be coming in the next day or two.<br />MelMelanie Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13987181555602340929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834596026525717264.post-28090123666873537622012-02-15T13:58:59.838-08:002012-02-15T13:58:59.838-08:00Great to hear from you again, Melanie.
You are ...Great to hear from you again, Melanie. <br /><br />You are right--Chris is a pretty special man. And I'm blessed beyond words that he's chosen to spend his life with me. He continues to teach me what it means to be patient and gracious and understanding (among other things), all lessons I need to learn from time to time. <br /><br />You are very sweet and kind with the words you've chosen to describe me. If I wrote perceptive too, well, I'd come across as egotistical, but you've captured some of the qualities I'm sure Chris appreciates in me. Let's just say, in comparison to him, I'm all too aware of my shortcomings. But I'm working on improving them.<br /><br />There are only two other people I'm aware of who have read as many of my blog posts as you have, and both of them are good friends from different phases of my life. To have someone who doesn't know me in person to take to my words in the way you have is both surprising and humbling.<br /><br />Thanks for your ongoing interest in my blog. I look forward to reading any other comments you have to share.Rick Modienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02157314737543591048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834596026525717264.post-60266463046010176582012-02-14T23:26:38.453-08:002012-02-14T23:26:38.453-08:00Wow Chris sounds exactly like the perfect man. Bu...Wow Chris sounds exactly like the perfect man. But don't sell yourself short - you may be all those things you say - uptight, control freak, insecure - but I'm sure Chris fell in love with you for a good reason. Through reading your blog I can also tell that you are big hearted, introspective, generous, supportive, humble, trustworthy - willing to compromise, able to empathise. I think you contribute a lot to your relationship!Melanie Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13987181555602340929noreply@blogger.com
