Happy Birthday Alleen!

It’s always been a challenge to celebrate your birthday since it’s so very close to Valentines Day. The 2 big events (b day & v day) seem to compete for attention, but I do my best to make you feel like the special person you are on each day.

Remember When? (My First Webpage)

Do you remember when we first got together? It’s hard to believe we’ve been married almost 6 years… It seems like we had so much more time for each other in the beginning of our relationship. Time to do nice things for each other “just because”… Time to enjoy each other’s company…  Time just to snuggle up on the couch, just so I could be close to you. I remember how hard I tried to make you feel special then. I made this corny webpage with a poem just for the heck of it…..

Then And Now

What’s changed? Why do I find it so difficult to make time for my beautiful wife? Life just seems to get in the way of us these days. The kids, work, and even sleep/exhaustion seem to get in the way of us making quality time for each other. The “special things” I use to do seemed to have gotten pushed aside by life. For this I am sorry, but I promise to do all I can to  make time for us. It’s amazing to me that my love for you still continues to grow more and more each day.

Wonderful Wife = Wonderful Life

My life is made better by knowing and loving you. You have given me 2 wonderful children and been such a great example to them and I. It’s been so amazing to see God working in your life. He is shaping you into such a godly woman. This is one of the most attractive things about you, your love for the Lord and your desire to follow Him. It’s one of the reasons I continue to love you more everyday. Your love for God is inspiring to me. Thank you for your commitment and reminding me of my own spiritual responsibilities to our family.

Moments With My Love

It’s nice to know I can still enjoy just hanging out with you and talking. It brings back those sweet memories of when we first met. Those moments of awkward silence and those “cool/wow” moments (inside joke)…

I feel we need to make more time like that for each other. Instead of laying in bed watching our favorite show, sometimes we just need to turn the TV off and just focus on each other. What do you say my love?

Your Grateful Husband,

Dustin
