Happy 14th Anniversary Jay!
10 things I love about you...
1. How easy it is to make you laugh, that deep belly laugh that makes your eyes water.
2. How you pray over the kids each night. The same prayer every night, they wait for it and you always deliver.
3. How if you get home form work first, you make supper. Even if it's almost always steak! Have I mentioned you make great steak?
4. The way you fill my van up with gas whenever you get in it!
5. The way you support me in whatever new endeavor I take on. (2 infants? Sure babe, whatever makes you happy!!)
6. When I catch you looking at me in that way. You make me feel like the hottest thing out there.
7. When you cry at movies. I know I make fun of you, but I am touched that you feel safe to cry in front of me and that you feel things deeply.
8. That you refuse to fight with me. I tend to want to escalate quickly and you keep me in check. You make me wait and warn me that when I'm pissed, my words are harsh.
9. The father you are to our children. They will learn great things from you about hard work, perserverance, affection. Our kids know how lucky they are. You also fill a space for our kids' friends who have absentee fathers. You provide a role model for them as well.
10. And last but not least, for always loving me with your whole heart. There were years when I took more than I gave in this relationship and thank you for giving so freely and happily. I never have doubted that you love me and I plan to spend the next 14 years giving back to you all the love you poured on me.
LOVE YA JAY!!!

That's a great post Jo! Congratulations on 14 years. I can't believe its gone by so fast! Seems like just yesterday that Harley Davidsons drove around the dance floor at your reception.
If its your 14th Anniversary, it is then my 14th Anniverary of vowing to never drink fruit punch again... and to this day I haven't. Vodka and fruitpunch, not a good mix, had a hangover for a week. But it was a great reception!
What a beautiful tribute. Happy Anniversary! So long ago and just like yesterday at the same time, God Bless you both!
Jo, I love this. Jay seems like a pretty special guy, but then, you are a very special lady, and you definately deserve the best.
Love the "sure babe" thing, U says that to me ALL the time! "Sure babe, whatever you want".
