Around this time 17 years ago, I met this goofy kid in my 6th grade history class. Little did I know that I would grow up and marry him.
He has been such a blessing in my life and through all of our ups and downs we manage to end up stronger because of them. There are so many reasons why I love him but here are a few:
*I love him because he looked passed the fact that I had been married before and wanted to take that leap of faith with me anyway.
*I love him because he puts up with my crazy OCD tendencies when it comes to everything. ;)
*I love him because he embraces the passions that I have and makes them his passions as well.
*I love him because he makes me feel special when I feel like the biggest loser.
*I love him because he willingly goes shopping with me and actually enjoys it.
*I love him because he sits and cries with me when I'm having a bad day.
*I love him because he is the silliest person I know and he embraces it.
*I love him because he embraces the role of being an uncle and loves those kids like they are his own.
*I love him because he loves Emma and Fishy so much that it makes me thankful that he will be the father of my kids.
*I love him because he never compromises who he is for anyone.
*I love him for his commitment and devotion to serving this great country.
I am so glad I talked to that goofy kid 17 years ago!
Have a wonderful day everyone!

ReplyDeleteHow sweet! Love this post. Amazing what our dear husbands will do, for us, huh? Phil doesn't like shopping but I loved it when we shopped together for a few groceries, next to each other instead of separately getting items. Have a wonderful life together and hopefully some dear children. Hugs from snowy Oregon. We've got 2 inches and more to come most likely. 17 degrees. Can I say brbrrrrrrr! I need a blanket!
