Andre the Giant, Space Pajamas & Love

For those of you that know me personally, I don't think it's any secret how head-over-heels in love I am with my other half, Ben. Its instances like the string of messages below that really make me think, "There is literally no one else in the world for me".

Here's just a snippet of the little moments that make my heart sing and conjure up a good, hearty belly-laugh. To set up the scene- we were chatting about our roof that was damaged from a barrage of storms this Spring.

Benjamin:  I just need to borrow a ladder from Andy and your eyes at some point.

me:  Alrighty!

Do I have to get on the roof.....?

Benjamin:  No you do not.

Just point to stuff from the ground and catch me if I fall from the roof.

me:  Alright!

I will be sure to catch you.

Benjamin:  hecks yeah

me:  Just like in the Princess Bride when Buttercup jumps into Fezzik’s arms, out of the castle.

You can be the princess and I'll be Andre the Giant.

Which is a lifelong dream of mine.

 Benjamin:  to marry a princess?

I can try...I think you know I am not above wearing dresses...

me:  to marry a princess is good too.

I was thinking more along the lines of being Andre the Giant

but I like where your head is at.

Benjamin:  But if you are catching me, you have to be the giant.

Which means I have to get on the roof with a dress on.

No biggie, I'm excited actually.

I just require it be a light butter yellow or perhaps royal blue with ruffles...

me:  Do you want me to make your dress or your space pajamas first?

Benjamin:  Pajamas, definitely.

End Scene.

Yeah, we're on the geeky/quirky/weird side but it works for us. And when it works, the little things become that much more precious.What simple, tiny moments make your life all the better?
