Hello everybody!
I hope you guys are well.
My husband celebrated his 37th birthday last week. We decided to spend the day at the New York Aquarium as well as the kiddie rides in Coney Island. The aquarium is currently under construction, due to Hurricane Sandy, so many of their exhibits were closed, but we were able to see the seals perform. They were magnificent!
We finished our Coney Island adventure/birthday celebration by taking a quick walk on the beach. My husband and I gazed at the cruise ships as they sailed away, while the girls played with the sand and filled up their shoes with it! 🙂
We got home late and I was so happy that we had given the birthday boy his card and gifts early on in the morning. I want to share with you the words that I wrote to this extraordinary man in his birthday card. Why? Because I want to celebrate the one that I love. I do believe that I hit the jackpot and I’m not going to apologize if you think that I’m bragging because finding a companion that truly accepts you and takes everything into consideration is hard. He is by no means perfect, but he has so many qualities that many men lack or simply don’t want to share with their significant others. We say, “please” and “thank you” to each other. These simple words can mean the world. He says to me, “Thank you for taking care of our children,” and that fills my heart, soul, and mind with calmness. I feel appreciated. I say to him, “Thank you for working hard to support our family,” and that shows him that I value him going out into the tumultuous world and sacrificing time with his family in order to give us what we need to survive. We NEVER curse at each other because we RESPECT one another. I’m not saying that I don’t curse because I do and so does he. If I stub my toe, oh yes, the shit word will be flying out of my mouth, but if we happen to have a disagreement, curse words don’t help. They make things worse and the respect card gets thrown out the window. It’s as simple as that. Plus, it helps that we genuinely love each other so there you go. I wholeheartedly believe that friendship before a relationship is a great foundation for an everlasting union. Just think about it, there are many people who are friends for life. So, why not incorporate that with the one that you love?
To, Angel
Love, Angie
“Thank you for loving me and taking good care of our family. You are the greatest example by far of what a real man should strive to become: A loving husband who understands and respects his wife and a proud, doting father, who’s also hands on, and loves his children to pieces. Thank you for your commitment and your strength. I hope all your wishes come true because YOU deserve it.”
Celebrate the one you love!
Take good care all.
Until next time…
