LOVE, is an ACTION word!

Today is my fifth wedding anniversary. Look at us in those carefree days. NO US, not the ripped abs on the lady in the bikini behind us! Layne and I dated for a long time and looking back I am so grateful we did. I married my best friend and that time together made being married so much better. We really had no adjustment period we knew each other to well. We have had a crazy five years and are even raising a little boy who is older than our marriage. I married a very kind man who is tender hearted and loves me unconditionally, which I know is hard to do some days!!:) Love is an action word to him. He shows me he loves me every day He washes the dishes every day.
He changes diapers and dresses children.
He helps with dinner if he is home and sometimes does it on his own.
He let's me get away when I need to and happily takes over kid duty for me.
He rubs my feet even when I won't rub his.
He gets up with kids in the middle of the night with me or for me.
He still holds my hand whenever he can and at home on the couch while we watch our favorite NCIS.
He is a hands on Dad and loves his children.
He does the majority of our grocery shopping
before he comes home from work (Costco)
He is funny and he makes me laugh.
He never misses a chance to cuddle or give me a hug or kiss.
He does this and so much more and I LOVE him for all he does and all he is.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY LAYNE, I LOVE YOU!!

Happy Anniversary! I'm glad Layne found someone, and "getting to know you" via your blog tells me he lucked out and got a good one! I was worried about all those troublemakers ;) hanging out with my brother for a while, but it has all turned out great in the end!
