My Funny Valentine

Last night we talked about things we love about each other for Family Home Evening.  When it was my turn to share what I love about the husband, I couldn't help but mention his sense of humor.  I tend to take things too seriously sometimes (shocker, I'm sure).  I am always in need of a good laugh to lighten the mood and provide me with much needed perspective, and he's always there with the laugh and the perspective.  We're a good team, I must say.
Marjorie Hinckley said the following of her marriage to Gordon:


“Well, his sense of humor got us through all the crises of our lives. Because he never took himself too seriously, or anything else too seriously- except things that should be taken seriously, of course. But he was not a worrier.” 

I can echo her sentiments.  The husband's sense of humor has gotten us through the crises of our lives, and I am truly blessed because of it.  I'm grateful for my funny Valentine who fills my life with laughter and my heart with love.
