My Valentine

My valentine is an awesome provider, and has a very strong work ethic.

He takes me places like the Science museum, just because I like them... because he loves being shoulder-to-shoulder, no matter what it is.

He sees beauty in creation, loves to be outside and see new places, but will hike the same trail 20 times - just because it is my favorite.

He indulges me with trips to the ocean at least once a year, even though he'd rather be in the pine trees.

He learned to love having a dog in the house and with us all the time - because he knew it was important to me.

He is thoughtful and romantic, usually when I least expect it.

He loves his family and would do anything for it.

He loves his children with all his heart.

He always does whatever needs to be done with a smile on his face.

He has given me three beautiful, special daughters - who adore their daddy.

He takes the burden on himself whenever possible, physically and metaphorically. 

He is affectionate, and manages to make me feel pretty - even on the bad days.

He always makes me laugh, and still makes me feel fireworks like when we were dating.

After almost eleven years of marriage, thirteen years together... I love him more than ever!  

Happy Valentine's Day, Justin!  I-you...
