Dearest James–
I had to wait a long time for you, I guess my whole life up to that point.
I’m so lucky to be your wife. You are so kind to me, so loving. I thought I was done with the whole being in love thing when we met. I still remember the electric shock that went through me when I looked at you the first time and thought “I’m going to marry him.” Which was odd because I never intended on getting married again. I wasn’t even sure I wanted a boy friend!
Meeting you and marrying you and making our own family where love is the answer to every question and care for each other paramount lets me know that life is sometimes better than fair. I had so much sorrow in my life and now, for the last ten years, so much joy.
You are an amazing father. Your devotion to the Bean is more than I could ask for. You are a wonderful partner to parent with and a loving daddy to her.
I hope you know, every day how much I love you. I didn’t realize that you could actually love someone more every day, every month, every year. I always thought that this feeling faded with time, and though it has changed from fevered to content it is deeper and more wonderful.
Thank you for being you and for loving me and the Bean.
