You are so loved...

This is to Jared. Not that he ever really reads this (but he does sit down with me once in a while and will say, "let's see what my family has been up to"). So in the event that he is by my side in the near future and wants to see what we've been up to, this one's for you my dear.
I love you so much. You are so loved and you make our home so happy; the words "I love you" are always at the tip of my tongue and I know you feel the same way. I love how you tell our boys so many times in a day how much you love them. I love how Austin giggles at night when you lie him in bed and you say, "I... (with your finger by your eye), LOVE (hand over your heart), YOU!!! as you tickle his chest) and to hear that cute little boy cackle that infectious little cackle. And then he does it right back to you. I can't help but smile and laugh inside. My boys are always crawling over you, fighting over who gets to occupy the most of dad's space at any given time, and hearing my two boys say, "My daddy", "No, he's my daddy".. and then they just laugh as they crawl and wrestle with each other to get as much of you as humanly possible. I have so many moments throughout the day when I just look at you and I think, "Wow, how did I end up with him??" And "what did I do to deserve him?" I love how we can still stay up 'till 2:00 AM talking about anything and everything. Our goals and dreams, likes and dislikes, parenting, just everything, and we seem to see eye-to-eye on so many levels.
I love that you speak your mind and you're not afraid to just say it how it is. You're so real and I wouldn't have it any other way. I love that you treat everyone the same level of courtesy and you reach out to others. You have a strong sense of loyalty and take care of those who are good to you. I love how everywhere we go people seem to gravitate toward you. You give everyone a chance and you don't change your character in any way because you're afraid of being judged. You're just who you are... and I love who you are. I love everything about you. Thank you for being you and thank you for loving me, our boys, the life you've created for us, for making our home a happy home. I love you, I love you, I love you.
