I Think I Love You - Isn't That What Life Is Made Of

---

This old gal…

Was sitting in the front room…doing old gal stuff…this husband of mine…lounging in the bedroom…watching TV…a song fills the air…familiar…beloved…yet this old gal…hasn’t heard it in years…like…almost 50 years…OMG…Are you watching Partridge Family…comes the query…yes…comes the amused reply…followed by a…chuckle chuckle…

Little me…loved LOVED the Partridge Family…wanted to be Shirley Jones…recreated Oklahoma and the Music Man…in the grassy expanse of the backyard…wanted to marry…David Cassidy…but he…another preteen heartthrob…David…Greg Brady…Davy Jones…that somehow slipped through those sweet little fingers of mine…

And here it is…50 years later…never got to Shirley status…but was blessed with wonderful opportunities to sing…perform…direct…Mr. Cassidy…that hair flipping while he sings hunk of a hunk…eluded the grasp…but it’s ok…cuz this old gal…found something better…found…just what she needed…
who just so happens…to be in the next room…belly laughing…along with the canned laughter…at those lame jokes…and…ridiculously simple story lines…

Oh husband of mine…
I think I love you…
Isn’t that what life is made of…
Yes…yes…yes…indeed it is…
​
And anyone who loved the Partridge Family like little me…must surely…agree…
