You're the one I want to tell about my day. That has not changed and won't.

Valentine's Day

Thirteen Valentine's together and you still leave little notes in my coat pocket. I will never get over you.

You make our life feel possible. Thank you. I love you. Happy Valentine's.

Valentine's Day

The version of myself I get to be in this marriage is the one I like best. That's you. That's us.

I love the way you laugh at our kids' jokes like they invented humor. I love the way you fold the towels wrong. I love everything.

Valentine's Day

You hold the family together with quiet hands. I see it. I love you for it.

Valentine's Day

We've outlasted apartments, jobs, two cities, a pandemic, and that terrible blue couch. I'd outlast more, with you.

Valentine's Day

Some days I marvel at how lucky I got. Today is one of them. Today I'm marveling out loud.

Valentine's Day

You're the man I want our kids to remember. Steady, kind, present. You're already that. Happy Valentine's.

Valentine's Day

The grand gesture I want is breakfast at the kitchen table with you tomorrow morning. The day after. Forever.

Valentine's Day

Marrying you was the smartest decision I've made, and I have made a few. Happy Valentine's, my best yes.

We don't fight loud. We fix quiet. That's a kind of love most movies don't show. I'm proud of ours.

Valentine's Day

There's a face you make when I tell a story you've already heard. You let me tell it anyway. That's love.

Valentine's Day

You picked up my mother from the airport last Christmas without being asked. I have not forgotten. I will not. I love you for it.

Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's to the man who knows what I need before I do, and brings it without making it a thing.

Valentine's Day

The thing I love most about you is the thing you'd never list — that you keep showing up. Every day. Without applause. That's the whole man.

Valentine's Day

I have loved you longer than I've been the person I am now. You made the difference. You made the becoming possible.

Valentine's Day

You let me be the loud one when I need to be, and the quiet one when I need to be. Thank you. That's a rare instrument.

Valentine's Day

I love how you make coffee on the weekends. I love how you read the news out loud to me. I love how you defend my friends.

Valentine's Day

The vows said "for better or worse." We've done both. I am still here. I am still in. Happy Valentine's.

Valentine's Day

Some husbands buy the flowers. You bought the house. You did the laundry. You held the baby. You are doing it. I see it. I love you.

Valentine's Day

I would marry you again on a Tuesday in jeans. I'd marry you again on a Saturday in a downpour. Any day. Yours.

Valentine's Day

The kids have your laugh. I'm relieved. It's a good one. Happy Valentine's.

Valentine's Day

You are not the easy choice. You are the right one. Every day I'd make it again.

Valentine's Day

There's a quiet truth I think about when you're asleep: you are exactly what I needed and somehow more. Lucky me.
