I know there will be more and I am keeping record of them every day for my knowledge but | |
these are a few of my feelings, memories, things Daniel does that I just love, why I married him | |
why I love him, there are some poems, quotes and song lyrics that remind me of him | |
or how I feel about him, there are things he does to me and for me. The main purpose | |
for this box was to be positive and uplifting for Daniel so that he will know in every way | |
possible that he is loved so much by me. I did take out about 30 "personal" things I do | |
have in his box… for our eyes only… sorry. These are in NO particular order. | |
This is what I put on the lid of the box… | |
| You mean so much to me, it's hard to find a way to tell you you're loved each and every day, |
so many loving thoughts I hold within my heart. Although our lives change, | |
| of mine you'll always be a part. Maybe this will help to show how much I care. |
My life today and always with you I want to share. | |
| Let these words not only touch your eyes, let it travel through your soul, |
and let it rest in your heart, as you rest in mine, 'I love you.' | |

to my cousin Lynn about him and right after I hung up, | |
it hit me. He was THE ONE and I'd know for sure the next time I saw him, and there he was, | |
he opened the door and there was a line on his face from sleeping and his hair was all | |
pressed to one side and he was half awake. I hugged him so fast I didn't want to let go. I just knew. | |
305 | I can't sleep, I can't breathe until he's resting here with me |
306 | I love how his soul wraps around mine |
307 | He shows his love for me by all the things he does |

immediately after we were embraced in the most wonderful hug | |
309 | He made my playroom dream a reality |
310 | He can drive across the country and NOT get lost! |
311 | He would spend his lunch hour just to watch me sleep |
312 | He came all the way home from work just so we could…. Uuuuh, hang out. |

315 | He was willing to try sushi for the first time when we were friends |

318 | I love that he will listen every time I have to say how wonderful Depeche Mode is and why |
319 | I love that he always waits a few seconds after turning the light off in the bathroom before he opens the door so he can see |
320 | I love that his thumb goes back flat |

340 | Meeting and falling in love with him has been the best present I have ever been given |
341 | My body fills with tingles every time he touches me |
342 | We have the same earthly and eternal goals - Love does not consist of gazing at each other, |
but in looking together in the same direction. | |

346 | I love tha he always tastes good |
347 | I love him more now than when you began to read this sentence. |
348 | He takes the blame for everything even if it really isn't his fault - "It's not my fault I love you, it's yours." |
349 | Lovers walking hand in hand, oblivious to everything, but each other. Not a single word passes between us, |
there was nothing we needed to utter. This reminds me of us 100% and I love him for it! | |
350 | You have to walk carefully in the beginning of love; the running across fields into your lover's arms can only |
come later when you're sure they won't laugh if you trip. Well, at least we were holding hands as we ran across the field and I tripped. | |
I'm glad he laughed though.. his laugh can make any embarrassing moment funny and not embarrassing! | |
351 | He says I love you over 500 times a day because it never seems like enough - |
The most important things are the hardest to say, because words diminish them. | |
352 | He is a husband that truly shines, bright as a star in the darkest times, |
353 | Knowing he is my husband makes me so proud, he would stand out in any crowd. |
354 | He is the missing piece of my heart that I've been waiting so long for, it was something I found very hard to ignore. |
Now I truly feel whole, and I'm looking forward to our future days together, that will be spent with him. | |
355 | What I need to live has been given to me by the earth. Why I need to live has been given to me by him. |
356 | I love him to the depth and breadth and height my soul can reach. |
357 | I can truly say - We love with a love that is more than love |
358 | Truly in love I am with him |
359 | The day that I fell In love with him, I found a love so wonderful and true, as time goes by I find myself loving him more. |
360 | I enjoy everything we do together. |
