Joan likes the fact that they both like saying and hearing it so much. Maybe they say it so often because they're spending all their time together, or maybe because they're working through a difficult time and it gives them reassurance and strength to be reminded of how deeply they love each other, a constant touchstone even when things get dark. Maybe when things are easier and they are interacting with the world more the frequency of those words will abate, but Joan is in no hurry to deprive them of those expressions of love.
Hearing that Beard is on his way breaks the quiet moment, and Joan sits up. "Great! Let's get me into the living room so I'm ready when he gets here."
