To The Man Whom I Adore:




I am deeply in LOVE with you. These last 14 years have been the BEST of my life. How can I possibly put into words how amazing I think you are? There are so many things I adore about you. So many. From the moment I met you I felt a connection like I have with no other person. Ever. And I swear as each year passes I find you to be even sexier than the year before. But it's not just that adorable face of yours that makes you sexy~though Grandma Randall knew what she was saying when she looked at you after our wedding and said, "Matt, you're such a pretty boy." It's the beautiful ( but very manly) man that you are. So, my love, I wanted to take a minute to tell you just a few of the things that I adore about you. The things about you that make my heart skip a beat.

*I love that when you get home from work the first thing you do is kiss me and ask me how my day was.
*I love that when you kiss me good bye in the morning you always kiss me way more than once. Morning breath and all.
*I love your random, silly dances.
*I love it when you bend over and ask me to look at that sore ankle of yours...all so I can get a good glimpse of your adorable backside.
*I love to watch you love our kids. You are an amazing father.
*I love to catch those glimpses of you just looking at me. Looking at me like I am the most beautiful woman you have ever laid eyes on.
*I love how you tell me, almost daily, how in love with me you are.
*I love our nightly arguments about whether we're going to watch a movie or if your going to sit on a bean bag in the bathroom and talk to me while I have my "Calgon, take me away" time. And most times you let me win the argument. Good thing we discovered we could watch "The Office" on our laptop. Now we both win:)
*I love it when you let your facial hair grow just a little bit scruffy. It's adorable. A little bit bad boy. I LOVE it!
*I love that you push me to reach for my dreams.
*I love that you whole heartedly support me.
*I love that I can trust you no matter what.
*I love your responses when I ask you if I look O.K.
*I love that I want to be a better person when I am in your presence.
*I love that even after a long day at work you still find it important to help out at home.
*I love traveling with you. You are by far the funnest person to hang out with.
*I love the way you look in a wet suit.
*I love that even with all of your responsibilities, I never have to question where your priorities lie.
*I love that you take your responsibilities seriously. You don't do things half way.
*I love your kind heart. You help those who need your help and you do it with a smile on your face.
*I love that you love God and try to please Him in all that you do.
*I love that I am yours forever.

There are so many other things I could say about why I adore you. Just know that I ADORE YOU.

You are just that AWESOME.

Happy Valentines Day, Mr. Sexy Ankles.

You rock my socks.

I LOVE YOU FOR ETERNITY

I still remember when you and Matt met at a singles activity. You were immediately smitten! I remember Bonnie and I asking you how you knew Matt was "the one". You told us you just knew. I'm glad I also know that feeling.:)
Hope you two had a wonderful Valentine's day. Love your posts.

aw shux and stuff, how freakin' sweet was this? my hub told me yesterday he had heard on the radio that after 1 year of marriage couples fall 50% out of love and after 10 years of marriage they fall 100% out of love. clearly they've never met you two.

happy belated valentines day!
