Dave and I are celebrating this Valentine's Day with a nice dinner without our 3 year old and maybe some sweet cards for one another...that's the extent of Valentine's Day for us but that is what we chose together. This Valentine's Day I decided to come up with a Top 10 List for my hubby on what I love about HIM...I tried to keep it very real without sappy details that just sound good. Here are just 10 things I love about you, Dave...
1. I love the way you provide for our family. You have given me the incredible gift of staying at home with our children and the responsibility that you feel to provide for us lies deep within who you are..a gift to this wife.
2. I love the passion that you hold for the things that are in your heart.
3. I love it that you are an extrovert and are always willing to be out and about even when I know you are tired! I know you can have a conversation with anyone and I mean ANYONE!
4. I love the excitement you have about being a daddy to both of our boys. The way you talk to little guy in my belly in the same way you did with J is so special to me right now. I never grow tired of watching you engage J in those things that you love.
5. I love your silliness, even if it is sometimes at my expense...love my theme song and crazy way you say my name when I am in a bad mood.
6. I love the sweetness that you hold. I am sure it has been with you since you were a little boy, and I can see it in J over and over again.
7. I love your sincerity...what you see is what you get.
8. I love how you can put my perspective back on track when it sways from what scripture commands.
9. I love the way you aren't afraid to try new things. I can't think of anything that you won't try once.
10. I love how you are still totally in LOVE with me and very much keep our relationship a top priority!

Baby, this was a very sweet Valentine, much better than even some of those Hallmark cards. Some of those things on your list were pleasant surprises! I pray that I will continue to be the God-fearing husband that you deserve.
ReplyDeleteI thank the Lord for the precious gift that is you, my wife.
On a lighter note, how come nobody placed any comments on this post?!?!
I love you, sweetie!!
Dave, if it makes you feel better, Emily did a similar post about Reed on her blog...your list inspired her!
