Jade's Favorite Things, #7

Tom's Martin Guitar
and of course the "Long Legged Guitar Pickin' Man"
Tom loves to play the guitar and thankfully he is good at it. Many of you don't know what a great song writer he is and how often he sits around our house playing great music. My favorite family memories include Tom playing this guitar in our living room. When we were dating Tom stole my heart by singing sweet nothings on his old acoustic guitar.
After the wedding, knowing that a mortgage and more kids were coming, Tom seized the opportunity to drop a little cash on a nice guitar. I am so glad he did. Our house is always filled with music as a result and when he plays the kids usually come join in from all ends of the house. There are some nights where Tom is sitting singing the blues all by his lonesome, but what he doesn't know is that I am always lingering listening in.
If our house ever caught on fire, I would grab my kids, my Coach boots, and then this guitar. That is if Tom hasn't grabbed it first.
