My journey with my husband began back in college. I was buried in textbooks in my freshman dorm, when out of nowhere, a guy in a bright red hat burst into my room and doused me with my own super soaker. He chuckled and bolted when he caught sight of my shocked expression. At the time, I wasn’t exactly impressed, but something he did must have clicked, because two decades later, I still find him charming.
One day early in our relationship, I was upset with him—over what, I can’t recall. Maybe he pulled a prank on another girl. As we walked back to my dorm, I did my best to disregard his existence, strutting ahead with my hands in my coat pockets and my nose pointed skyward. Then, without warning, he made a dramatic leap, pretended to trip over an imaginary obstacle, and crashed into a snowbank.
It was absurd, yet absolutely hilarious. I erupted in laughter, forgetting my irritation. In that moment, he showcased his remarkable ability to diffuse tension with humor.
Recently at the airport, I witnessed an older woman in a wheelchair expressing her frustration to a flight attendant about a long wait to board. The attendant’s generic response only escalated her annoyance. That’s when my husband leaned in and quipped, “Need a piggy-back ride?” The woman burst into laughter, tears streaming down her cheeks.
My husband is a total jokester, and I’ve never regretted choosing a partner with such a playful spirit. Sure, he can be embarrassing in public, but he consistently brings joy into our lives. Life has its serious moments, so why not share it with someone who can find humor in even the most ridiculous situations?
The funny guy teaches you that life is meant to be savored, not weighed down by worries. When you’re feeling overwhelmed or down, he’s the one who will coax a smile from you, even when you think it’s impossible. He’ll surprise you with super soaker antics, leap into snowbanks, and scare you silly with playful tricks—just try to resist the urge to strangle him!
Not only is he brimming with creativity and enthusiasm, but he also knows how to be serious and supportive when it matters. He understands that life can’t always be a joke. As a father, he’s a marvel—playing, wrestling, and dressing up in silly costumes, ensuring your kids think he hung the stars in the sky.
A good-natured man like him truly wants to see you happy, your children laughing, and even strangers at the airport smiling. You’ll never regret marrying someone who can make you laugh through life’s ups and downs.
Recently, I watched my son, 11 years old, surrounded by a group of girls after school. He was making silly faces and voices, and then pretended to run into a flagpole, collapsing dramatically. The girls roared with laughter, and I could see the thrill on his face. I internally groaned but couldn’t help but smile at the fact that another funny guy was in the making.
