Reason #72 why i love my hubby

As stated above, reason #72 why I love my hubby:  he allows me to play the chivalrous card.

Now I suppose I should explain the above comment...Tonight Hubby and I were working on one of his messages for church and he decided he was thirsty.  He then got up and went to the kitchen to get some ice water.
This starts an interesting conversation that is illustrated below...

Me: Honey, will you get me some water?

Hubby: Well, I was going to ask you if you wanted some, but since you asked....NO!  You have destroyed my dreams and I will never ever get you water for as long as you live! You will ask and ask and ask, but no one will ever let you near water. EVER. (ok, maybe that was a little exaggerated...a little...)

Me: Can you put ice in it too?

Hubby: You are seriously going to ask me for ice, when I just told you I wasn't getting you water?

Me: yeah...

Hubby: Why?

Me: Because you are a chivalrous hubby who loves me very much (said very sweetly with much eye lash batting)


Hubby: Are you really going to play the chivalrous card?

Me nodding while smiling....(probably somewhat creepily)

This is where Hubby looked at me like I was absolutely ridiculous and started trying to flick me with water...from 14 feet away.  Now that may sound a little crazy, but I can guarantee that the parts to follow quickly make this seem perfectly normal...


I blinked. Every single time he flicked me with water from 14 feet away.  I shut my eyes tight like I was afraid I was going to get water in them!  I couldn't help it!  I saw those fingers dripping with water, moving quickly to flick those drops in my face, so in order to save myself from getting soaked through, I continued to snap my eyes closed at the first sign of water coming towards me....even though it never came anywhere near me.

This reaction to his water flicking of course made Hubby start laughing and then me laugh, while pretending to be horrified that he would laugh at me for being cautious about his water flicking...but then the tables turned...

I caught him using drops of water off his fingers to try to water the kitchen plant, while yelling "Live!" over and over at the top of his lungs!

It was the funniest thing ever!  And when I pointed it out to him, he just kept going.  It was the funniest thing!  and the plant wasn't even dying yet!  (i'm really surprised by that too cause I do not really water it....ever...)

So after all that was done, Hubby comes back into the living room. and I got my glass of ice water.  What a sweet hubby he is!  



UPDATE: I just told Hubby that I never say mean things....he looked at me like I was lying of something and said "aren't you living in a fantasy?"  What do you think that means???!?!?  


UPDATE #2: HAHAHAHAHAHA
