The difference between men and women

Devin and I are currently babysitting his sister Mesha's four boys in Pleasant Grove while she and her husband are on a four day get-a-way. Last night, we decided to rent a movie after the boys had gone to bed and we were sitting together in a big rocking chair that they have enjoying the show when we had the following conversation:

me: "Do you remember the last time we sat in this chair together like this?"

Devin: "Yeah, we watched the movie, 'Coach Carter'"

me: "Oh, we did? I don't remember that. Do you remember anything else?"

Devin: "ummm...no, why?"

me: "Well, that was the first time that we ever talked about getting married." (which conversation, I might add, lasted a good few hours after the movie)

Devin: "Oh, it was?"

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the difference between men and women.

Oh my gosh, that's classic. I can totally relate to that. Sometimes I feel like Landon and I are in separate marriages.

I can totally see Chris and I having a conversation very similar to that. How funny!

At least your hubby doesn't try and deny things he forgets...

Why do I need to remember such things? I got you! That's called working together!

Kimmy that is hilarious! haha. but you know what - in our relationship - i'm like the guy- i forget things like that . boo me. hahaha. But generally- that is SO true! I don't know if i'd forget something as big as the MARRIAGE convo though-- come on Dev.
AND- i LOVED the previous post about the traveling shirt! Thanks for your comments- you're so sweet and you know I feel the exact same way about you. I'm so glad you have a blog for me to keep in touch with you. Also I was JUST telling Pax about this shirt like 5 days ago! How funny that you bring it up. Who DOES have the journal. I so wanna read it again! hahaha.

how funny, i can't say it gets much better as time goes on, but whats most important is that he loves you! even if he can't remember all the special details you do. thats what i tell myself anyways....
