This is a beautiful piece of writing. "Impatient shriek of a tea kettle" I love this line. There is a wonderful feeling of contentedness and peacefulness in your writing. It was a pleasure to read and a treat to be given a glimpse into your life.

Sounds like a special relationship. Written so beautifully, full of love.
Nice to see a family doing things that don't revolve around the TV.
Good Luck,
Savannah Cat

Comment from nitad
Our circle is complete as we cling to each other in this day of nothingness and fullness.
What a beautiful sentiment! I enjoyed your story as I myself lay in bed enjoying a lazy, leisurely Sunday morning of reading.
Razor-thin minutes continue marching unkindly; the lovely day, unforgiving, sways away in spite my wishes to bring it to a standstill and make eternal this moment of now.
Ah, if only we could make moments like this stand still...
Well done, Nitad

Thank you Mzhrust for the great review and corrections. I made some of those corrections, those commas always pause me in trouble. Thanks!

Dave is one blessed guy, as well as you. Thank you for sharing a Sunday. Please know that your reminiscence are delightful. A couple of perhaps typos-o: "they were as precious as elusive circling-in planets." Did I miss something or did you leave a word out? 5 phrases above the end: "inspite (of) my wishes to bring..." Ever heard the song, "Love is lovelier the 2nd time around."?

Really great, well written. It makes me glad it's Sunday today! With two little ones at home days like this don't happen for us anymore.

Good morning, amada.
I've been away for a while and don't think I've encountered your name before. I'm glad I did here. Good to see a little tribute to a spouse here. Nice job. Thanks for sharing. :)

Comment from Ginniegozali
hi amada,
a really lovely,
doing that routine will never make us bored just because we do it with or love one.
i really like your sentence which said:
Our circle is complete as we cling to each other in this day of nothingness
and fullness.
simply beautiful!
thanks for sharing.^^

Comment from guyowen
How wonderfully loving was this? Your word picture skills are delightful. here are few I especially enjoyed:
the impatient shriek of a tea kettle
After a while,
with a grumpty laugh, we accept defeat
At times we even dare to mumble-gumble a song.
Almost Paradise.
Sundays with you
Thank for showing a weary world what love was meant to be.
guyowen.. Being the romanticist you are, you might enjoy "All That You Are" which I posted two days ago maybe three
