Laughter....

I haven't heard my husband REALLY laugh until today. When he's home, he's a total goofball. He's always laughing and always trying to make me laugh. We spend most of our days together laughing. It's his favorite way to start the day and the best way to end any of our fights. It's what we do. It's one of the things I love most about him. He finds the humor in any situation. I was starting to get worried that this transition had taken his laughter away....until today. Finally. Sweet..Sweet laughter. Big belly laughs. Even a few giggles snuck into our conversation. He deserves to laugh. I'd miss his smiles if they went away.... They light up every room we're in together- especially when they are directed at me.

Now I can sleep.
He's okay. He's going to be okay.

My quality of life just improved.
That being said...I'm going to enjoy a small pleasure- a nap.
I think I'll finally be able to close my eyes and not have nightmares....

how funny :p

nate gave me a laugh today as well. it stemmed from what our son was doing, but i can imagine that he was picturing it in his head and gave me the most wonderful thing to hear via phone.

nate's seemed stressed lately, so i'm glad he laughed. =)

Great that he has something to laugh about. I'm sure lots of the things they have him doing will be sources of laughter in years to come ... even if they aren't at the moment.
