Happy Anniversary Babe!

This is for my husband of 3 years today. I love you more each day… seriously I’m not just saying it!!
It has been non stop fun with Jon. He and I have lots in common. We hit it off as friends right away. Most of you know we met through a LDS widow’s and widower group. Even though we only knew each other a couple of months before we eloped in Vegas we talked about everything. We discussed how many more children we would want to have… How we did not want any pets…. How I would get to stay home and be a care giver to our children. To what we would do when the kids all left the house. Jon and I knew what we were looking for in our next partner. We knew we had found those special qualities in each other. Jon makes me laugh. He is sarcastic just as I am. His sweetness is what won me over. After each weekend date I always got a beautiful assortment of flowers at work on Monday. Once he even pulled off the road and picked me a flower with out any sort of prompting. Although the sweetness is not put on as strong now as when he was trying to land me, it is still there. He brings me home my favorite candy bar. He stops in and gets me a slushy drink. He calms me down with jokes or with just a look when I am upset. We can laugh about our fights when they are over or even while they are going on. Neither of us can stand being mad at each other for more then a day. He can manipulate me like no other! LUCKY ME!!

I had to laugh at your comment about how he won you over with all the sweet things he did while dating you, and now not so much. Eric is MUCH the same. Gotta love em'.
