My little piece of Thank You!

" I never made love with anyone but you, because there is only you who I've ever loved."

Mighty Storm by Samantha Towle

When I was young,  I used to be more in love with the idea of LOVE then the person at that time. I made a lot of bad decisions, unsound judgement and I paid all the consequences. I also had my share of heartaches (some unexpectedly and some well... my faults). Until I met a man 10 years ago who swept me off my feet!

I guess what they say is true...you don't look for love, love will definitely find you! I certainly was not looking for a husband at that time, but once i found him, my life has never been the same.

We are Yin and Yang! He likes comedy and I'm the hopeless romantic kind of girl. He's happy sitting home quietly at the couch, while I like the sun, sand and the beach. He likes to play tennis while I mostly like to indulge myself reading my favorite books. He likes soy sauce, I love vinegar. He loves tea, I love coffee! And yet...we work!

Juami is my best friend. He is my rock! He is my source of strength. He lifts me up when I am down, and grounds me when my head is in the clouds. He loves me for the crazy girl I am and I love him for the bully guy he is! Fat or thin, long or short hair...doesn't really bother him.

He makes me laugh yet sometimes he also annoys the hell out of me. He spends way too much time playing XBOX, squeezes the toothpaste from the middle and man, if he buys another watch I tell you, I  may just have to divorce him! But I love him that way...it makes him not perfect! (But be sure not to buy another watch!!!)

I must admit I still am fascinated with fairy tales...the magic of first kiss...the happily ever afters! Ours is not a fairy tale though, but I would not ever change it for anything! We have our own ups and downs, our own fights and make up stories! But this is how we like it. This is the only way we know how to express our love for each other. This is US, our own LOVE STORY!

It's been 2 years since we made a vow to each other and you forced me to say "I DO" (lol) !!! So let me give a little piece of my thank you's...

Thank you for sticking it out with me especially during my weakest hours last year when we lost our Angel. For putting up with my crying moments and most certainly when I feel like I'm almost losing my sanity. 

Thank you for being my life coach, my cheerleader and my partner. For always trying to make me look at the glass half full when I am most certain it is half empty. 

Thank you for calming my fears, wiping my tears and giving me a good slap in the head when i need it!

Thank you for sharing your wonderful family with me, and for loving mine in return!

Thank you for staying up with me while I finish watching my favorite vampire series even though I know you don't believe in vampires at all and you would rather sleep in our bed alone. Thank you for patiently watching Sex and the City movies and forcibly appreciating Carey Bradshaw the way I appreciate her. 

Thank you for staying in bed with me even if I snore too much, well that's how you claim it, when i know its really you who snores like a bear (but its really cute and i like it!).

Thank you for understanding the girl's need (well my need) to buy shoes and bags even if I just had one yesterday!

Thank you for giving me space when I need it, allowing me some "ME" time and times to enjoy with my friends. Thank you for still giving me my individuality, my freedom that helps me maintain a strong sense of myself.

Thank you for allowing me to DREAM BIGGER...slowly trying to fulfill everything listed on my bucket list. The traveling, the adventures, the dining experiences...all the fun! 

Thank you for not laughing when I said someday I will have my own spa and salon, my own coffee shop and bookstore! That someday I'm gonna write a book of my own! It really means a lot!

Thank you for buying me Lander the Outlander, although you like it for yourself, you still let me have it as you were very concerned about my safety on the road. 

Thank you for the every glass of water you happily handed me before going to bed so I can have a better sleep...believe me, those little things surely doesn't go unnoticed!

And mostly, thank you for putting up with my renewed addiction to books! Even if you always tease me as your BOOKWORM WIFE, i still love the fact that you support me with it without any bit of jealousy over my "book boyfriends". 

But what I want you to remember on this day, is that I LOVE YOU more than anything else in this world. You are my very own Christian Grey and Gideon Cross, you are my very protective Travis Maddox, you are the smart Will Cooper and the very gorgeous Kellan Kyle! (you can also be my Piolo Pascual, though I know how much you hate him, but I love him!) You are my very own Prince Charming!

Happy 2nd year anniversary baby! I am not sure where this crazy magic carpet ride is going to take us next, but I do know there is no one in this world I would rather have this journey with than YOU! 

I LOVE YOU! Looking forward to more fruitful years with you!

Your Crissy,
