This guy! My other half (or better half) the guy who picked me to spend the rest of his life with. The guy I don’t give enough credit too! Who has stood by me through some incredible times and some incredibly tough times. When we got married 11 years ago we wrote our own vows. I promised to always laugh with you, never to go to bed angry, to comfort in times of sorrow, especially when the Red Sox were losing, to listen to you and remember to not say you are wrong but I feel differently. We have laughed, been angry with each other but never gone to woken up angry, we have watched the Red Sox win and lose, we have had our differences of opinions but we have never told one another you are wrong.
We pledged to ask for help and to offer help…I pledged to love you under any circumstances, happy or sad, easy or difficult through sunshine and rain.
You have helped me become the person, wife, and mom I am today! You have encouraged me through so many changes. When I became a mom and suffered with PPD, when I was pregnant with Baelor you helped me through the difficulties, through my multiple surgeries, when I took a leap of faith and decided to interview for a new job. You have always stood by me.
When I got the call saying I had cancer somewhere in my body you hugged me while I cried and cried. When I questioned why it was me and asked what I have done wrong you assure me that I have done nothing to deserve this. When I look my worst you tell me I am beautiful, when I’ve gained the most you tell me how beautiful I am.
You may annoy me-and I might annoy you. You might think you’re a better driver (we all know I am). You definitely don’t like my shows, but certainly tolerate them. You don‘t like my music and honestly I don’t like yours…lol but we still go to concerts together. I know you draw the line at Usher…lol. You listen to my endless stories about nothing, laugh at my stupid jokes (even when I can’t remember the punch lines), you encourage me to follow my dreams, and too take chances.
Im scared for the day that We aren’t together. I worry about what happens when I get sicker. I don’t want you to hurt. I don’t want you to worry. I want to know that you and the boys will be okay.
I don’t know where this journey is going to take us next but I couldn’t be happier to take it with you. Thank you for standing by me through thick and thin, good times and bad, sunshine and rain! I love you always and forever.
