He has total faith in my abilities
He's very clever in his way
I trust him totally with our relationship
He was willing to fight for us and for me when it was needed
He totally believes in our strength as a family unit and the value of all our contribiutions
He genuinely thinks I'm a yummy mummy when I so am not LOL
He is exceptionally talented at what he loves to do
he has a huge sense of fair play
He's willing to have his opinions changed when he hears new evidence (I always consider thsi a huge strength)- eg he comes from a hugely racist / homophobic family but has actually moved completely away from that
He had the emotional strength not to sleep with anyone until ew met because he believed it was wrong
