a note i wrote to my tall, dark and handsome husband

***

you make my heart skip as much now as you did when:

• i saw your neon jacket in 1990
• we really started dating in 1994
• we got engaged at gooseberry in 2000
• i saw you at the front of the church in 2001
• we found out i was pregnant in 2006
• carter was born in 2007

can't wait to keep adding to the list that weaves the story of our lives.
