teammate

If you take my first two initials (M and A) and my husband's first two initials (T and E), 
they spell two words:

TEAM

and

MATE

Put them together, and you get TEAMMATE.


We figured this out when we were engaged.  Isn't that something adorable, newly in-love, fawning all over each other people do?  Well, we did.  We thought it was so great that we had the word TEAMMATE inscribed inside our wedding bands.



I had a hunch about my teammate.  Like any great teammate, I knew that this guy wasn't just going to be there for me when during the wins, but also the losses.  It's the losses when you most need a good teammate.  I got one.

Oh I am so sorry! It wouldn't matter if you had a million children, a loss is a loss and it hurts all the same. Sending you a bloggy hug and a big brownie!

I am sorry, Maureen. Sometimes there are no other words than that.

(Love the TE AM MA TE story.)

Your Friend,
