THE BETTER HALF!

Today is our 11 year anniversary and this morning we just looked at each other and smiled. I'm not that big into jewelry and gifts, but I am grateful when special days are acknowledged. That is ALL I want! I can't believe it has been 11 years and we are both somewhat sane with 3 kids and one due ANY day. The thing I love most about Ted is his desire to keep going. He does not give up and we need that in our lives. Did I ever mention how funny he is? He can be super corny, but let me tell you...our Cub Scout pack meetings are famous! I love watching him be a good dad. My favorite is when he reads to the kids and make all the different voices or when he imitates the SNL characters. I knew that when we got married our lives would be "funny." He is a crack-up and I love to laugh, but he can be serious when he needs to be and so very tender when things happen that require him to be sensitive. He is SO the better half in our marriage. I love the way he can roll his eyes at me to let me know I'm being completely ridiculous and hysterical and then try to kiss me and make me laugh even though I still want to be mad. I appreciate his thoughtfulness. He takes time in formulating how he wants to say things when I just blurt things out without regard to feelings. He is very patient with me and I am so not. When people tell me how much they love him and how great he is...I tell them I am so lucky that he's mine and I absolutely 100% agree!

I love you Ted!
