a love note, as is only proper

I love the model stadiums you build.

I love your confused face when I wake you up to say goodbye in the mornings.

I love when we look at each other over Jason's head during church and you give me that half smile.

I love how you tuck me in at night.

I love how you run errands and do chores for me and don't expect any praise for it (I'll get there one day.).

I love how you hate bell peppers as much as I love them.

I love when it takes an hour and a half to go to sleep because we're too busy talking and dreaming and cracking each other up.

I love seeing you interact with Jason.

I love how you won't get out of bed on a Saturday without a back rub.

I love how you hold my hand and give me hugs and kisses, even in public.

I love that heart of gold I first started falling for two years ago. I love your priorities and your goals and your faith and most of all, I love the way you love me.

To lovers and future lovers and dog-lovers and blog-lovers everywhere: Happy Valentine's Day!
Let's not celebrate the gifts or flowers as much, but just plain and simple love and how happy love makes us.
