How firm a foundation ...

... I have in my marriage. I'm so blessed to have it.
I'm thankful, after 10 years, that we still get a kick out of each other.

That he is loyal, and honest, and a hard worker.

That he does his duties, even as much as I grumble about them.

That he is confident, smart, and ambitious.

That he is clever, and funny. And only once in a while corny.

That we like the same TV shows and movies - though I don't believe we've ever even read the same book.

That he knows how to dust, fold and iron, though he won't admit it.

That he's up on current affairs enough for me to ask about anything, anytime, and he can educate me on the subject.

He may not do toilets or coupon shop very well, but I love him.

He learned to iron at home--from his Dad. His mother was too busy doing the toilets and the dusting.

What a great list! You are lucky, but he is even more so to have you.
