Sweet Nothings in the Morning

My husband and I have been having a harder time than usual crawling out of bed in the morning. Perhaps it is because it takes so long for the sun to climb over the mountains here or perhaps it is because there is no time requirement on him from his job. Either way it is causing us to get a late start on our day. This morning I heard the alarm clock chiming at around 6:00 a.m. I promptly hit the snooze...just a bit longer to linger in bed. After all, it is all warm and snugly under the covers. My husband pressed his chin into the back of my head and started whispering in my ear. I was thinking that this was the perfect way to wake up in the morning...my lover, my best friend whispering sweet nothings into my ear. Then I heard what his sweet nothings where...he asked me ever so gently, "Do you want corn?" CORN!!! What does that have to do with morsels of love words...unless of course he thinks I am a sheep or worse yet... a pig!!!!!!!


Well, I must say I have had a bit of fun poking at my husband throughout the day. Never in my life have I heard such romantic talk from a man!!!
I can only imagine what words of love he may mutter from his sleep on the morning of our anniversary!!!!
grace and peace,

Whew! What a detour!! I suppose (somewhere in the world) those words could be considered sweet nothings. :) Did the pigs get their corn, though?

Paula,
Yes the pigs did get their corn so they are happy animals! I offered to make my husband corn bread, and corn beef hash, and cream corn along with corn pudding for supper last night. He just smiled! That all may show up as our anniversary dinner this year!!!
