Why I love this man

" One word frees us of all the weight and
pain of this world and that word is love."
- Sophocles -




I
love this man because he loves me despite all my flaws and stupidity. I love this man because he provides me a wonderful safe, and comfortable life. I love this man because he challenges himself always to do better and to be better in all aspects of life. I love this man because he is the best father and most devoted husband I know. I love this man because he gives all of himself so willing to serving the Lord and the church. I love this man because he knows what I am like when I am tired, cranky, hungry and annoyed and he still stays by my side. I love this man because he is the hardest worker and the best listener. I love this man because he lets me sleep in on Saturday mornings and will take the boys when I need some time to regroup and focus. I love this man because he loves to make me laugh. I love this man because he runs at 5 am so that we can have the evenings together, he trains on his lunch break and he finds the time to be tri-athlete and a husband. I love this man because he lets me be me in ways that I can't explain other then he knows who I want to be (when the world is telling me other wise) and tells me to just be who I am. I love this man because he knows I am addicted to clothes and shoes and lets me have the whole closet to store all of these things. I love this man because he inspires me to do better each day. I love this man because he has this crazy inner rocker yet he loves classical music. I love this man because he picks me up when I think I can't do it anymore and is strong enough for the both of us. I love this man because he stood in front of the temple almost four years ago and proposed. I love this man.

I love how you said he picks you up when you don't think you can do it anymore and is strong enough for the both of you. I feel the same way about my hubby. Aren't we so lucky?!

I still listen to Johns CD. He is so talented and nice. I miss his piano playing very much.
