Prince Doug

I'm not sure if everyone is aware of this, but I am married to a prince. Literally. He treats me like a princess. Just to prove this fact, let me share what happened today: For the last couple weeks I have been feeling pretty ill off and on, but yesterday was pretty bad. I was overly tired and didn't feel well in really any regard. I then had to stay up pretty late doing an assignment because there were some other things that just had to come first. All important. So Doug went to bed and I didn't join him until about one o'clock in the morning. Needless to say I wasn't excited to wake up at six thirty to make sure we had Doug ready and up to campus for his seven thirty class. I simply didn't know how I was going to make it. However I realized life is life and I am so happy that I am here to help Doug. I wouldn't choose it any other way. So off to sleep I went. WELL... come morning I remember Doug moving around a little bit and such, but didn't think much of it. Next thing I know Doug kissed my forehead and gave me a hug and told me it was about eight forty. WHAT?! Doug had taken my phone, turned off its alarm, and let me sleep in. What an amazing husband. He told me that he emailed his teacher and explained that his wife hadn't been feeling well and really needed to get some rest this morning. I cannot tell you how much this meant to me. I was (and quite frankly still am) blown away at his care for me. Doug just laid back down in bed and let me fall back to sleep in his arms. Heaven. My body was ever so grateful for the rest and love that it felt this morning.

Now I think you may all agree that I am married to a prince.
