corny

Is it pathetic to say that I feel like I have fallen in love all over again, even though I've been with my wife for well over a decade?
I'm not even sure why my feelings seem to have deepened; nothing in particular has happened. I just feel like I have a greater appreciation of her every time I look at her, and my heart swells with love and pride, and my tummy does little flips as if I've only just noticed her for the first time. Maybe it's the onset of Spring - animals all over the place are losing their minds and losing control of their bodies as the need to procreate takes precedence. We are, deep down, still simple creatures (especially men) so I suppose those natural urges still dwell within all of us and can be influenced by the seasons.
But I don't think it is that. I think I just landed with someone ridiculously out of my league and every so often I really appreciate it, and her.
