Happy Valentine's Day!

I've been wanting to post for some time now, but just don't seem to have much to say, or any pics to post up with it. So, I have decided since I am totally procrastinating the cleaning of my house, I'll write a little something on here.

Today is our first married Valentine's Day ever. Anthony has already gotten me a dozen roses. They are BEAUTIFUL on my table, see:



and...




He is so sweet. He's working days today, but when he gets home we will be going out to dinner at this Italian (surprise, surprise) restaurant:



Romeo's, for dinner. I can't wait. We were supposed to have our rehearsal dinner there, but ended up changing to a different place...so I've been waiting for a long time for this.

We aren't big Valentine's Day celebrators. My husband gets me flowers regularly, he always has, even when we dated. I get beautiful flowers, different kinds, about once a month. It's always a surprise, and it always makes me fall more in love with him. A little too corny, I kinda thought that after I wrote it, but it's true. I love Anthony with all that I am. I never thought it was possible to love someone so much. When we were dating we watched this show, or movie, or something...but the line in it was "you are my breath". Instantly, we looked at each other and laughed and said "don't worry, you will NEVER be my breath". We learned in marriage counseling how never to think that your spouse "completes" you. It's so true. I am not half a person without Anthony. I can still function, I still have meaning and worth. I don't need him to breath. BUT, I do know that when we aren't together, I can't wait to be with him. There's a part of me that feels empty when he's gone for 3 nights every 10 days. I miss him. He is my BESTEST friend ever. While he'll never be my breath, he sure does help me breath easier, and while he doesn't complete me, he sure does make me feel complete. I love you babe, with every cell of my being! Happy Valentine's day Anthony!!!
