Today is my anniversary. I don't write a lot about my wife on here, because everyone I know likes her more than they do me. And for good reason.
Not many people know this, but she is absolutely brilliant intellectually. It's one of the things that attracted me to her. She has the capacity to learn and create that is utterly beautiful. She's very quiet and soft-spoken about it, which is also great.
Everyone, however, knows how understanding and kind she is. Just this week, she left town to take care of her sister and their newborn baby. Erika's eight months pregnant, and is normally exhausted from taking care of Kylie, but she didn't even think twice about it. She's a servant at heart, and does so joyfully.
She's the best wife a guy could ask for. When she's gone, I'm a mess. She's a wonderful mother to our daughter, has more patience than most people I know, and has this really cool ability to lead people from behind the scenes.
I could go on and on. Anything I do in celebration today feels insufficient.

She is the glue and the glue is so important. She is a wonderful wife, mother and incredible friend. AND she will hate all of this because she hates public recognition, which makes her even more incredible! AND she LETS you play video games!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE to hear husbands dote and brag on their wives. Happy Anniversary, I hope you two have a wonderful dinner tonight!
