I LOVE…

 
 

I LOVE…

• the silent support he gives me when he knows I’m unsure or apprehensive.
• the boisterous laugh that comes from his belly when he’s happy because his happiness is contagious.
• the way he intuitively knows how I’m feeling…almost uncanny…like he can read my thoughts.
• how we have gotten better at compromising.
• when he gets creative in the kitchen. 
• how protective he is. I feel safe when he’s around.
• the gentleness with which he takes care of our girls. I couldn’t ask for a better father for my daughters.
• his attention to detail.
• his DIY skills! 
• the way he handles a car. When he’s behind the wheel, I can fall asleep, even in a rainstorm…on slicks… on the L.I.E…
• the way he solves problems. Sometimes, our approaches to life’s challenges are so different. 
• our private jokes that can be acknowledged with an eyebrow raised and a glance across the room.
• the time that he spends with my sons. Boys need their dads. He’s there for them. To talk to. To joke around with. To take a ride and just be…
• how aware he is. His awareness and insight that he has shared with me has also helped me become more aware…more open…
• his thoughtfulness. Whether it’s bringing home a picnic basket that made him think of me, or texting me just to say “I love you,” he knows that little things that mean a lot.
• that we have gracefully grown from two to six.
• the way my stomach still does flips when I think about our beginning.
• the way he will reach for my hand lovingly when driving.
• that he can help me be a better person.
• the he loves me…STILL…

Happy Anniversary Babe. We have come a long way together. I’m so glad that God gave you to me.
