Hey Buddy,

I love you today.  I have been thinking about how blessed I am by you today.  You bless me in so many ways.  Thank you for wanting me.  Thank you for loving me.

When I got in the car accident on Friday, I remember right after just wanting you.  I didn't want to call anyone else. Just you.  Babe, you are my one and only forever, my best friend, the one who sees me at  my worst and still loves me, and the person in my life who it would be truly TRULY hard to live without.  I hope you know how important to me you are.  I'm sorry about the car, and I am glad you responded the way you did to me about it.  Thank you for being gracious, for caring about me, and not making me feel like a failure.  I really appreciate that.  Plus, the hedgehog is pretty neat. :)

I know you are not very content in your job right now and sometimes it is really, really hard, but I want you to know that I am proud of you.  I am proud that you are my husband.  I am proud that you carry the Holy Spirit with you daily.  I am proud that you work with integrity and an admirable work ethic, even when your tasks are mundane.  I am proud that you treat those around you with kindness and look at them as people the Lord loves and wants.  Thank you for praying with and for me.  Thank you for genuinely loving God even when it is really hard.  Thank you for worshiping with me and sharing your contagious faith.  You are truly the best gift and I am so glad you chose me as your wife.

I love you.

Thanks for making me smile and laugh everyday. :)
