100 words: The one I love

It’s all too easy to lose sight of important things in the day-to-day hustle and bustle. The little kindnesses that he does, without expectation of gratitude. The gentle warm hand on my side as we spoon asleep. I smile at his consideration for the sunflowers, such that no fire can be lit in the firepit they’ve grown around. The care he takes of cats and household. Exasperated acceptance of a pet name, originally bestowed upon the cats, which somehow also labeled him. His willingness to try any culinary experiment. His love suffuses my life and I am enriched by him.
