He takes me to exotic lands (okay, just one land - Europe, but it was a great honeymoon). He shares his dreams with me and helps me make my dreams come true.

He'd follow me to the ends of the earth (or at least New York City) to pursue my dreams. He supports me when I'm looking for work and when I decide that it's a good idea to spend $50,000 on a degree. He tells me I'm stupid when I don't believe enough in myself.

He keeps me entertained and can always make me laugh when I'm blue. He tells me jokes and we are so connected that we often feel like we're sharing a brain.

He loves me when I'm crazy. He loves me when I'm dumb. He loves me when I'm unloveable and when I embarrass him.

He loves me for me and I love him for him. I love that we have our own language and would rather be together on our couch than anywhere else in the world. I love that I'm going to grow old with him and that he will be the father of my children.
I love that he loves me as much as I love him...

best post ever!
How sweet. Now I have to get rid of the ants that are going to take up residence in my memory.
"He loves me for me and I love him for him!" I believe you are perfect mates for each other and that it will only get better with time. I enjoy watching your interactions with each other-especially the subtle ones. I love the way you each appreciate the other. I will be delighted to spoil your children-my/our grandchildren for many years to come.
Ok, so you didn't tell me you would make me cry. I can't think of anything a parent wants more than for their child to have what you have. To see you with the love of your life and to know that he is such a wonderful man. And of course he has a wonderful woman! You are both a joy (most of the time) and I love you both very much. Wonderful tribute to love.
Love,
Mom
P.S.--I got me a good one too! Man that is--
