The Answer Is Yes

This husband and I...

Were taking a drive—can't remember from where, most likely coming home from one of those yearly medical appointments—when he turned and jokingly said...

"Would you catch a...a...what is it?...what do they call it?...a...a...

Knew exactly where he was going with this, in spite of the senior moment. Bruno Mars crooning on the radio...vowing he'd 'risk it all for you'...this song triggering the poke at fun...

"Grenade?" came the answer. "Would I catch a grenade for you?"

Should be a no brainer, but all joking aside, have been in relationships where if one of us were a damsel in distress tied to railroad tracks, her Dudley would not be a Do-Right and would have more likely left her there with the menacing mustache man...so it happens...

But in this case...that man of mine can rest assured...when it comes to those she loves...those daughters of hers...that Punkin' pie, the apple of her eye...this old gal would jump in front of a train for them...go to the ends of the earth for them...

And for that goofball, asking his ridiculous questions from the driver's seat of the car...ninja-me would certainly catch a grenade for him...because she knows, without a doubt...

He would do the same...
​
And this husband of mine...agrees...
