There are those little differences in a couple’s life. One of these we had was called: “Making the Bed”.
I love to arrange the pillows and straighten the blanket, making our bedstead nice and neat, first thing in the morning.
You didn’t think much of it first, why wast valuable minutes on something that would be tossed again sooner or later anyway?
But when i explained, that i believe this to be my first task of the day, and successful completing my first chore early on would give me a sense of accomplishment, not to mention the Feng Shui energy and calm, order instead of chaos exude, it seemed to reason with you.
As with everything in life, you took this challenge and excelled at it, soon presenting me with a result, that would make both a five-star hotel and a drill sergeant proud.
I know there and then: I will never be able to make my bed, without thinking of you…
