Well I hope your night went well. Just remember only 1 more night to go before we are together for the rest of the year.
This is likely the last entry of the year before the annual Christmas letter entry. The year seemed to go by so fast didn’t it? Christmas is now in the single digits away! I know you have so much to do and it is causing you stress, but the the reward is always worth it for you.
Today I find my self missing you quite a bit. Last night when we went to bed I had one of those moments when I knew that what we had was perfect. You curled up next to me so you could be warm. There you were lying next to me in your nightgown, smelling perfectly feeling warm, content and perfect. It was as though you were created to be in that spot with me. A perfect fit. I whispered in your ear “I Love you” and you told smiled and told me you loved me too. Then you fell asleep. It was one of the best nights sleep I have had in a really long time.
When we woke up we were still in almost the same position. It made for a pretty great morning too. Thus when I tried to fall asleep tonight without you things just weren’t right. So if you didn’t know, I was missing you even more all night.
After 20+ years it amazes me that we find so many of those little perfect moments. so many tiny little things that remind us how lucky we are to have each other. So many thing that remind us how in love we are.
When the older daughters friend came to the house this weekend and you told me about her father situation it made me think. I thought I wonder did she notice we hold hands in the car? Even on a short trip to get something to eat. Did she notice that we stop at various points throughout the house and hug/kiss? even though there isn’t a “required moment” for doing so? I know at one point she turned her head and heard me tell you that you looked “really good” in your jeans. She smiled after i said it. Maybe it was less because I was ogle-ing you and more because she just thought it was nice that we did so for each other.
I bet our kids take for granted that we still have such a great and close relationship with each other after all this time. For a few days, I hope a stranger thought it was nice. Ironically, I only thought of this after she left. That makes those little nice things we do so much more natural. Its good to be in love isn’t it?
You’re the world to me. I love you more than anything in the world.
