Daily love notes to Luis
during the month of Febrero.
during the month of Febrero.
Day 2 ...when i get all hot and bothered... you somehow keep your cool.
Day 3 ...i like to be woken up by you... even if i do sound grouchy when you do it.
Day 4 ...i love that you've never been in a fight. let's protect that pretty face of yours. :)
Day 5 ...i like it when you focus on the positive.
Day 6 ...it's part of what made me fall in love with you in the first place. that hasn't changed.
Day 7 ...helps me build confidence in the kitchen.
However, you will always be the "top chef" in this house.
Day 8 ...whether it's coaching, tutoring, home-schooling, football stuff or whatever... you do so much for us and i am appreciate all that you do and love you so much for it.
Day 9 ...with you, i discovered how good food can be... you appreciate a good meal, whether it comes from your mom's kitchen, our kitchen, or some crazy fancy, let-me-clean-your-spot-with-a-knife-fancy ...i love how we enjoy food together. let's eat!
Day 10 ...Poh was a decision you made with your heart. It was an impulsive and completely emotional reaction to love at first sight. I love that he brings that out in you. :)
Day 11 ...us and costumes are always a good time! you get just as creative as i do and it is so much fun running around trying to find the perfect pieces to wear, even if it is always last minute.
We make each other look good. ;)
Day 12 ...although i've always had a problem in this area, and although i might want you to spill your guts when it comes to other people's bizness... i am thankful that you don't. i respect that you keep your nose out, don't judge, and don't make assumptions about others. i am learning from you.
Day 13 ...you read my mind last night!!! our laughter makes me the happiest person on earth! it's the most genuine thing and feels so good to do until we're both in tears. even if it's at inappropriate times or about inappropriate things... i want to laugh with you forever. it's my favorite.
Day 14 ...you're a fan of me. What more can I say?
Day 15 ..."Love ain't easy." I feel like we're always a work in progress. Marriage is something, I feel, we both actively work at and I think our love definitely keeps us on our toes.
Day 16 ...So loud, SO FUN! I hope the neighbors can hear us!
Day 17 ...and he's a pretty good judge of character. ;)
Day 18 ...sometimes you give me a look (today in the car). It's a look between, you are the nuttiest person on the planet, why the heck am I laughing right now and I love you because you're the nuttiest person on the planet and I love laughing at you. That look, I love.
Day 19 ...taking time to get away, try new things, and wandering the earth is fun with you.
Day 20 ...both literally and figuratively and i trust you behind the wheel. :)
Day 21 ...when my eye puffed up for absolutely no reason today, you seemed so concerned. when you show concern, it's nice. even when you don't know what's wrong or how to fix it, you try to be reassuring and i definitely need that sometimes. you've always been that way.
Day 22... you totally get my stress, at least when it comes to school. you totally understand when i am under a stressful deadline and have to stay at work late, or come home moody and exhausted... not to say that you like it, but you get it.
Day 23... we've known each other for 16 years... more than half of our lives. we can totally be ourselves around each other, without reservation, especially when we're at home in our pjs on a saturday morning. we know each other in a way no one else on earth ever will.
Day 24 ...k, so technically i didn't write this... it was Jayden. and actually, if i'm being honest, she wanted to say, "...you help me to play golf." lol. but i edited it and told her to leave it at "help me" because you really do help her with so many other things. you help me too. the heart was her idea. ;) you're so good with her and it's like getting a glimpse at a possible future.
Day 25 ...you don't hold a grudge. you don't let things get to you. you don't judge. you let things go.
(4.5 years today!)
Day 26 ...whether you pretend to be asleep so j and i can play a prank on you or because you let me test out magic night cream on your face... you really are a good sport.
Day 27 ...you don't really ask for much. ever. you are happy with all that you have and what God's blessed you with and understand that where you are is where you should be. you put others before yourself and i definitely admire that about you and need to learn to be more like that.
Day 28 ...whether it's in work or in your work-outs, you keep yourself motivated, give yourself goals... and that's sexy ;) ...i'm thinking it's bound to rub off on me at some point.
Day 29 ...how awesome is this! i got an extra day for my February love notes! I kept it simple.
I just DO.
i feel like it's so easy for us to just take each other for granted and all that we have... i know that it's definitely easier to point out all the things that irritate, annoy, or anger me... it's true for most.
(but that list would not have been as much fun... but trust me, they're there.)
i am blessed to have grown and changed along with you all these years, in our points of view, in our experiences, in our faith, in our love. i hope to continue to grow and evolve right along side you. 
i wrote down even more things this morning, on the 1st of March... and i know there are so many more that i am not even cognizant of... but i know that in all the big and little things that you do and say every single day,
you show me.
Thank you for loving me.
