To My Husband...

Dear Todd James,

I can't believe I am saying this already, but, I am. Happy Anniversary, Babe. We have now been married for a whole year.

On our wedding day, this milestone seemed so far away. I thought it would never get here. But it's here. And it came fast. Just look how times flies. We are no longer newlyweds, in the traditional sense of the term. We are now just an old married couple. For real. And man o man look at all that has happened in the past year...




And I love it.

I love waking up next to your handsome (mouth open) face each day. I love falling asleep beside you each night. I love crashing on the couch with you after a long day.  I love knowing that I can be myself around you. And I love knowing that you are yourself around me. I wouldn't have it any other way.

I love your kind eyes. I love your manly hands ;). I love your unruly, ungodly thick curly "jew" hair (and hope our children get it one day). I love your tendency to correct all my grammar and poke fun at my miss Annunciation. I love the look you get on your face when you concentrate. I love knowing exactly what you wore for work each day, even if I didn't see you in the morning- as each item of clothing lays on the floor as if you literally just stepped out of them. I love your craziness.  I love your tendency to have no patience and stubbornness, as neither of us can claim these traits.



Thank you for being my best friend. Thank you for being my rock. Thank you for being my biggest supporter and most constant fan. Thank you for working so hard for us. Thank you for spoiling me. Thank you for making my world a better place. Thank you for being you.

The best thing I ever did was marry you. I will never regret it. I can't wait to see what the next year hold for us. We have been so blessed in the past year, I can't imagine it being any better- but somehow it always is. I never thought it was possible to be so in love with a man and the truth is- my love for you continually grows deeper with each day.

Love you,
Nicole
