I love him. Steve, that is.

Some things about him bother me.  Some things like, how he wanted to see how the Subaru handled in the snow and decided to punch the gas while turning a corner.  (Luckily, the car is smarter than the driver).  Or how he insists on wrapping up all the excess cords in the house with little ties and when I want to download pictures with a camera cord or unplug something from behind the computer I first have to get annoyed, find the little bundled cord, get mad, find scissors to cut off the bundle thing, angerly shake the cord back to its full length, and then proceed with what I was doing.  OR how he thought it was a good idea to back up all his music on the computer, but not worry about my beloved pictures of Evan.  OR how it takes him 4 hours to clean one small kitchen and one even tinier bathroom.  (just to name a few that are fresh on my mind...)

BUT, when I think of the little things that bother me, I can also see so many things that don't.  I love that he doesn't adjust the seats in the Subaru (other than moving it back to fit his legs) or the side mirrors because he knows that I have them just the way I like them.  I love that he likes things organized, even if it stretches to the cords behind the computer.  I love that he knew I was upset about the picture debacle and purchased a very large external hard drive that very night.  I love that, even though he is asleep, all toasty warm when I come bed, he lets me put my freezing feet on his warm body to warm up.  I love that he always puts on chapstick before he goes to bed and then tries to kiss me goodnight carefully so the chapstick doesn't come off.  I love that he doesn't know what to get me for Christmas and keeps approaching Jen with idea after idea.  I love that he let me dress Evan in an adorable little reindeer sweater for Thanksgiving and that he won the annual turkey weigh in with a whopping 6 pounds this year.  I love that he watches tv and laughs out loud.  I love that he humors me and my weird ways - most of the time.  (just to name a few that are fresh on my mind...)
