Sept. 1st was our six-month anniversary and you wrote the most lovely blog post. I wanted to reciprocate but was at a loss for words. That was until just a few hours ago when I saw your chat replies to my friend on facebook.
Me:I love you.
You:I love you, too!
Me:=)
<3
I read your replies and think to myself, wow, he's so smart.
and funny.
You:ha!!
Me: and something else, but I can't think of the word.
You: conniving?
Me: ha!!
It's not that, but it is something.
I wish I could explain the feeling.
obliging?
You: hmmm....
ha
Me: to my kooky friends.
You: I like kooky
Me: ha
You: as long as it's not crazy
Me: no.
no crazy here.
You: no
no like crazy.
Me: well, except maybe...
a little in the sibling department.
You: ha!
Me: but that's not of my choosing.
You: nope...can’t pick your family
Me: nope
I thought for a while about what it was I was feeling and what I was trying to explain and then one word finally came to mind: calming. I know that doesn't sound like anything amazing or extremely complimentary, but believe me; it is meant to be very complimentary and it definitely felt amazing to me.
It just hits me when I see how you interact with my friends and family. You have a way about you that is so calming and comfortable. Even if you don’t feel comfortable, no one else would know it, and I love that. And I never have to worry that you will say something in public that will make me cringe.

All of the above was written on September 7th, and then I was at a loss for words again, so I put it aside. Because, I just knew I had more to say and didn’t want to rush this onto my blog.
So, today is another special day, and probably the right day to pick this up where I left off.
But where was I? What was I going to say next? It was all swirling around in my head and made perfect sense to me. It was words and images and feelings all rolling around up there and I wish I could get that all down on paper to perfectly illustrate how I feel about you.
So, here are some words that are rolling around:
- Safe. You make me feel safe, physically and emotionally. When I am standing next to you, no matter where we are, I feel your strength around me, protecting me.
- Calming. I feel calm in your presence. I come from a big, crazy, loud family and you just make me feel so peaceful and at ease. You hear about my crazy loud family issues, and how they worry me, and somehow you make sense of it all and tell me it will all be okay. And I believe you!
- Fun. I never worry if you are having fun. We could be doing laundry or riding a roller coaster. You are fun to be around and you make me feel like I am, too. And it’s felt that way from the very start!
- Loving. You take care of me in the most loving way. I mean really! You put itch cream on my bug bites every night! Even when I whine about it for the umpteenth time!
- Observant/Communicative. You notice when something is not right. You notice when I’m feeling off and you talk to me about it...willingly. You talk to me! About anything! And everything! …wow, that just really turns me on. (And, of course, it doesn't hurt that you have the most amazing, sexy voice.)
Everything about you turns me on. Mentally, physically, emotionally. You get my mind buzzing and whirring, and I love it! I need it!
Today is your special day, Tiger. I wish you the best of everything…because you deserve it. Whether you want to hear it or not, you are the answer to my prayer those six months ago.
Shamelessly quoting myself, “…you were made for me”.
