Awwww....

March 13...

I didn't even have any words to say when a lady with a big bouquet of flowers knocked on my door. We were headed out to the grocery store and she barely caught me. I had already put Cael in the car and ran back into the house to get Averi and the diaper bag. My first thought was that she was some random person here to tell me why I shouldn't leave Cael in the car by himself, and I instantly had my rebuttal. It's our driveway...it was only for second...yadda yadda yadda. But then I noticed all the flowers and could not wipe the smile off of my face! She handed me the vase and warned me that she might not have spelled Derrick's name right because the sheet of paper with the request on it was blurry, but I couldn't even tell her what the correct way was! I just couldn't stop smiling, I thought I was going to cry. I almost canceled our trip to the store afraid they might die before I got home to take a picture....but that was silly. I did rush our trip though! We were in and out!

I love him so much and as much as I miss him, I could not be prouder to be his wife. I wouldn't trade him for anything in the world. Just knowing that he is still thinking of me too makes me so insanely happy. We are a very long distance apart and I admit, I had some worries about our marriage. A year is a long time and who knows what he could start thinking (or forgetting) over there...he never has had a single doubt though. He has told me since day one and I am so glad. He snapped me out of my doubts really quick! :)

Love you hon.
