His sense of humor<br \/>2. His eyes<br \/>3. His kiss (fan.tas.tic!)<br \/>4. How he sees the world a little differently from me<br \/>5. How much we see the world similarly<br \/>6. How well he takes care of me<br \/>7. That he is totally committed to Jesus.<br \/>8. That he is totally committed to me.<br \/>9. That he&#8217;s excited about our babies coming (he offered to let them come today&#8230;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s.xanga.com\/images\/silly.gif\">)<br \/>10. His ability to handle money<br \/>11. The fact that he puts up with all my craziness and crankiness<br \/>12. His ability to fix things&#8230;I always wanted a handyman!<br \/>13. The ways he&#8217;s like my Dad<br \/>14. The many more ways he&#8217;s nothing like my Dad!<br \/>15. How he can see details so much better than I can<br \/>16. That he curled up on the couch to watch a chick flick with me last night (and volunteered to do it!)<br \/>17. How much he loves to read and think and discuss<br \/>18. How he never complains about my cooking (he&#8217;ll eat anything!)<br \/>19. That he is able to keep all the computers running in the house so effortlessly<br \/>20. How he honors his parents and grandparents<br \/>21. That he really thinks things through before deciding on them (where I tend to make quick decisions)<br \/>22. His soft, strong hands<br \/>23. That he&#8217;s tall, dark and handsome!<br \/>24. That we both prefer the mountains to the beach<br \/>25. How he doesn&#8217;t whine like a baby when he&#8217;s sick (in fact, he doesn&#8217;t even tell me half the time!)<br \/>26. How well we complement each other<br \/>27. That he is going to willingly decorate the house for Christmas this year (should I be scared? <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s.xanga.com\/images\/winky.gif\">)<br \/>28. That he never ceases to surprise me.<br \/>29. That he rarely complains<br \/>30. His self-confidence<br \/>31.
