I wish I was capable of the words to express what is in my heart. It is filled to overflowing w/ the love I feel for my lovely wife. Coherent speech evades me when I think of how wonderful it is that I can spend not only the rest of my life with her but eternity. What an awesome concept. What a goal. I strive daily to live my life in such a way as to be worthy of her affection, trust, loyalty & love. I know that I frustrate her, my bad habits & poor choices do little to help our relationship. I love her even more because of the way she tries so hard & sometimes fails to be patient with my failings. I love to hear the contented tone of her voice speaking to me when she has nothing particular to say but still wants to visit. She makes me feel that all is right with the world when she is around. It is fun to see her interests growing as she reads a wider variety of books. She is opinionated & at times stubborn but I wouldn’t have her any other way. Although it rarely happens that like tonight she is the 1st one asleep I do love the peaceful look on her sleeping face & her muted silhouette beneath the covers. I seldom miss giving her a soft kiss goodbye in the morning. Most days it is still quite dark & she is typically unresponsive but leaving feels empty without the gesture. I have always liked her in red. However despite her many enticing physical features the attributes I most cherish are those of the heart. Hers is very very large. She strives so diligently to be obedient to the word of the Lord, to listen to his voice & do his will. She is truly inspiring.
Tammie, I love you. I LOVE YOU. I know that words of affirmation are not anymore your love language than physical touch but it felt right to do this tonight. Know that I am trying to be the man you need me to be. You deserve it.
Good night sweetheart
For what it’s worth

Ohhh hey thanks Sweetie! And frustrated I NEVER get frustrated, and as far as "failings" I don't think you have ANY! OK maybe I'm not being quite as honest as you were, but the things that frustrate me most about you are also the very things I love the most about you! (that's probably what makes it so frustrating;)
You are WONDERFUL, so patient, sweet, kind(and also at times very opinionated and well not quite as stubborn as I ;) I love you too so very much!
Wow! What a love letter. What do you say to that. I read it to Steve and he just said, "Whoa!" Lucky girl Tammie!
