dear husband...

..post #3 in our wedding week series..
{see the first post here: what we've learned about marriage,
and the second post here: a cute love list by husband}

today's post is made up of some little notes that i've written to husband. i love 
being married, and i don't think romance and daydreams should end once you're
married. in fact, they should just be beginning! i still catch myself daydreaming 
about the whole rest of our lives together... and even though i don't know how 
life could get much better than the stage we're in, i love the idea that 
"the best is yet to come." i believe that! it just gets better & better. 
so, sometimes i write him little notes just to make sure he knows 
about all the things i want for us... (even though i know he knows :)

dear husband,

in our house one day i want a wall by the stairs with pictures everywhere in all different frames. and pretty dishes in the kitchen.

just so you know.

love,

♥ me

dear husband,

every year at Christmas time i'll need you to drive around the neighborhoods with me just to see all the lights. and watch it's a wonderful life and white christmas. and kiss me like it's the first time.

just so you know.

love,

♥ me

dear husband,

when you get home after a long work day i want you to be the man who yanks open the door of the house and drops your briefcase & keys and kisses me first thing.

 just so you know.

love,

♥ me

dear husband,
i sometimes probably say that i don't like getting flowers but when you bring one single flower home to me "just because"... i definitely like them. just so you know.

love,

♥ me

dear husband,

election days are my favorite and i will need them to be treated like a holiday. and i will need you to please always vote. for whoever you want. just as long as you vote and then cuddle and watch the results come in with me.

just so you know.

love,

♥ me

dear husband,

i just read this part of john ashbury's at north farm and thought of you:
Somewhere someone is traveling furiously toward you,
At incredible speed, traveling day and night,
Through blizzards and desert heat, across torrents,
through narrow passes.
But he will know where to find you,
Recognize you when he sees you
i'm a little bit in love with this idea because that was true for us.

love,
♥ me

dear husband,

i'm glad you like dancing because i would like to always dance with you a lot. just us. cheek to cheek. whispering. you singing along to the music, or else just you singing without any music. in our pj's. in the middle of the night. anytime. in the street when it's raining. in the morning before church. let's just remember to keep doing that once in a while.

don't forget.

love,

♥ me 

dear husband,

i am a happy girl if we can walk to church most sundays.

don't forget.

love,

♥ me 

dear husband,

one day can one of the rooms in our house be painted tiffany blue? i would like that.

just so you know.

love,

♥ me 

dear husband,

let's always leave each other little love notes around the house for each other to find.

it's my favorite.

love,

♥ me

dear husband,

i can't wait to get a dog. i hope it's either a golden retriever or a white lab.
feel free to surprise me with it on christmas day one year...i wouldn't mind.

love,

♥ me 

dear husband,

let's always have a travel fund.. and pick a new place every year. it is worth it. let's not get so caught up in the bills and saving that we forget about being young and in love and having the world at our fingertips.

love,

♥ me

i will:

-pack you lunch

-make the bed

-always kiss you when you're mad

you will:

-catch spiders

-get the mail

--pick me up & hug me whenever you see me
