{to my Valentine}

I meant to post this yesterday, but Katie is sick and the day got away from me. 

Thank you, Ben, for all of the ways you show me that you love me-

Thank you for making me laugh.

Thank you for listening to me.

Thank you for constantly volunteering to run to the grocery store. You know how much I hate going.

Thank you for cooking on Sundays. It is so nice to have a break from the kitchen, and your food is better than mine anyway.

Thank you for working so hard at your job. I appreciate the lifestyle that you've provided for us.

Thank you for making projects around the house fun.

Thank you for playing Dr. Mario with me. I have a feeling that you don't really enjoy it as much as you pretend to just because you know how much I enjoy it.

Thank you for always encouraging me to take some time for myself.

Thank you for the unexpected treats you bring home for us- a Redbox movie I've been waiting to see, a bottle of wine, treats from a bakery, flowers.... You are such a sweet man.

Thank you for being a loving father to our babies.

Thank you for the way you sometimes steal a task off of my "to-do" list, just so I have one less thing to do.

Thank you for always being open to whatever weekend plans the kids and I have thought of.

Thanks for making life more fun.

Happy Valentine's Day! So sorry that we had to spend it apart.
