For Bry

I know you don't get as sappy as I do.  So, bear with me for a minute.  For some reason it's hit me hard today.

I realized today that I have been with you for almost half of my life.  Some would feel like they missed out on a lot - being with the same boy since highschool.  But for me, it's not that way.  You've always been enough.  More than enough.  I'm sorry if I haven't always made that clear.

The other day, the kids asked how long we have loved each other.  I told them since I was 16!  But your answer was not what I expected to hear.  You told them that you have loved me your whole life - you just didn't realize it until later.  Sheesh Larsen!  The kids couldn't figure out why I was crying!

So much to say, but I'll leave that for our book.
I just want you to know I love you....and that smile....and your determination.

We're lucky to have you.
Every day.

I'll fight for you forever.
