took the time to tear down the wall and get to know the real me
still tells me I'm beautiful
gladly samples all my kitchen experiments - they aren't all homeruns!
thinks its cute that I do old lady stuff like gardening and sewing
does everything in his power to help me with Elsie, and knows when I need a break
understands that it's hard living so far away from "home," and does everything he can to send me there as much as possible
doesn't care if the house is a wreck because he knows that usually means me and Elsie had fun playing all day
gladly turned the AmEx back on when I shopped so much they thought the charges were fraudulent and turned it off
works tirelessly to enable me to be at home with Elsie
kisses me goodbye every morning - unless I'm snoring, because that means I'm worn out and he doesn't want to risk waking me
is the most amazing father imaginable
loves animals as much as I do
still gives me forehead kisses
loves me unconditionally, even when I'm being a brat
makes hard decisions for our family, like saving our cat when the vet bill was almost as much as a mortgage payment
is okay with the fact that said cat now has to eat $40 catfood
still writes me sweet notes
has seen me ugly cry more times than he should have to
tells me he loves and appreciates me, and recognizes how tough my job can be
helps me host parties and dinners, because he knows I love having a house full of loved ones
gladly spent many nights in the guest bed so I could snuggle with the dog instead
knows exactly what I need him to say and when
loves my family
knows that I suck at writing sweet letters but appreciates the effort
cried on our wedding day
always says "yes" when he knows something is important to me
knows that when I'm cooking, he better get the hell out of my kitchen
takes my call when he's at work, even if it's something stupid like me not being able to figure out the coffee grounds to water ratio
was incredibly patient with my pregnancy insomnia crazy
is incredibly patient with me in general
will spend all day out on the boat with me because he knows I enjoy it, even though he's not a "sunshine all day person"
was so amazing in labor and delivery that the nurses told him he could work as a labor coach
will sit in the car with a sleeping baby for an hour because I need to run into a store "really quick"
is my everything and a whole lot more, just as I am his
Happy Valentine's Day to my boo
