I did...and I do!

Happy third anniversary to my witty, whipsmart, caring, sexy husband Dan. Although you're off gallivanting in glorious Detroit for business, I know you're thinking of me! And I, you...

Dan always, ALWAYS makes me feel beautiful - and I mean both as a woman and as a human being in general. He loves the way I stare, mouth agape, at the television during "So You Think You Can Dance?" just as much as he loves watching me dance crazily across the condo to hip-hop. He wholeheartedly supports my writing career and doesn't bat an eyelash when I have trouble adding checks at the ATM. He laughs - really laughs - at my jokes, smacks my butt in jeans and sweats alike, and always insists on sitting in the chofa (one-and-a-half stuffed chair) together, rather than on the sofa, apart. He has seen me through my eating battle, buying Reviving Ophelia when we were college freshman so he could better understand what I was going through (hello? What 17-year-old guy is so in touch?) but knows when to roll his eyes to put me in my place if I say something negative about myself.

Honestly, what more could I ask for? I love you, baby.

Please, please, share what you love about your partner or family!

I don't want to intrude too heavily on Leslie's turf, but I couldn't resist checking in and quickly relaying what I love most about Leslie:

They say certain people have the ability to light up a room; Leslie is the only person I've ever met with the ability to make it sparkle.

Trust me, there's plenty more, but that really sums it up in a nutshell.

Happy Anniversary!

I L0VE MY BOYFRIEND BECAUSE HE IS VERY FORGIVING AND HE LOVES TO HELP ME. HE SAYS HE'S DOING CHARITY WORK(BECAUSE I'M DISABLED) BUT HE DOESN'T PITY ME AT ALL.

My husband is my best friend. He's the one person who I can completely be myself with. He's seen both the best and lived through the worst of me. He accepts me and loves me no matter how I look, feel, act, sound, or smell at any particular moment. We're blessed, LB.

I'm Leslie's maternal grandfather and I couldn't pass up this one. I am very proud and pleased of their relationship. Their looks towards one another exudes comfort, trust, admiration. Her parents have been that way for 35 years. Continued love, respect, consideration, patience....those are the things that nurture both sides....I'm probably the luckiest guy having been in that zone for over 60 years... There's more, but enough for now!!! oxoxoxo
