Ree,

I hope this doesn't embarrass you too much, even though I'm pretty sure it will.

I just want you to know how much I (we) love you.
Shall we take a trip down memory lane??

I think so.

Here's our first picture together... at Rum Runners in Baytowne Wharf.

Did you ever think we'd bring our baby there to see the Easter Bunny?

I can admit, it wasn't on my mind that particular evening.

I knew it was l-o-v-e when you had your wisdom teeth taken out... just so I didn't have to do it alone. Not to mention at your future in-laws' casa.

This was a fun day...

Thanks for being such a sport even when I'm impulsive and stubborn. Like when I decide it's the perfect time for a clay mask even though you're trying to watch Baseball Tonight.

I still thought you were pretty rad even when we were insanely overweight. Just a thought for baby #2... let's try not do that again, K? I mean, where did our necks go?

Happy New Year 2K7...

Thanks for taking me to Canada for our honeymoon since I'm 1/3rd albino. And don't like the sand. And don't really like bathing suits. Or really anything about the beach in general.

Hmmm. Why do you live at the beach, one might ask??

Thanks for taking me to Memphis to see Cover. That was lots O fun!

Thanks for sleeping on this couch contraption for 5 days without ever complaining. Thanks for never leaving me - even once - at the hospital. Thanks for being the best dad on the planet.

Thanks for loving Chappell so much. I know you love her more than anything... and that is so special to me. I love it when you ask to see her on the monitor just "one more time" before we go to sleep and how you want to be the one to wake her up in the morning.

She is so lucky to have you as her father.

Thanks for getting the birthday gear for Chappy's 5 minute party. Again, that was so sweet.

I love you so much. I hope you have a better day today (Wednesday).

Again, I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. :)
