♡ Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. ♡
❥ Love is getting out of bed at 3am, even though you have work in just a few short hours, to tend to your loved one...who is in tears because of an excruciating pain from an extremely inflamed throat.
❥ Love is letting them ugly cry into your shirt and not minding when it’s left messy and gross.
❥ Love is not being disgusted when they cough up mouthful after mouthful of gross, phlegmy spit.
❥ Love is trying to make them a doctor’s appointment for the following morning, despite a complicated, outdated scheduling website.
❥ Love is bringing them all kinds of goodies to help smooth the pain, from milk to cough drops to cold popsicles.
❥ Love is opening up all the windows even though it’s 35 degrees outside, just because they wanted to get some fresh air.
❥ Love is getting back up to close said windows again, because they inevitably couldn’t take the chill, and bundling them up in all kinds of blankets.
❥ Love is putting on their favorite movie to help them relax, and making them smile by quoting the opening monologue.
❥ Love is not making fun of them for their favorite stuffed animal, which is actually a dog toy they mistook for a reindeer stuffed animal at the store one day about three years ago.
❥ Love is holding their hand, brushing their hair, hugging them close, and promising everything will be okay.
❥ Love is putting your loved one’s needs above all else; it is never failing to prove that you really are such a blessing.
♡ Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. ♡
