A letter to my husband on his birthday

March 23, 2011 by Miranda 7 Comments

Dear Dan,

Happy birthday!

I love you. More than you will probably ever know.

You are my best friend. My confidante. My rock. You have carried this family through so many tough moments over the past two years and if I live to be 100, I could never begin to repay you for that.

You make me laugh when I don’t feel like laughing. Which makes me smile. Which lightens my heart in a way I didn’t think possible in that moment. I’m so thankful for that quality in you.

Watching you play with our son assures me that I married well. Not for money, but for love. And there is so much love in your heart.

You are kind and generous. And I don’t give you enough credit for that sometimes. Or ever.

Short on time? Save this post for later.

No more lost tabs, random screenshots, or digging through your browser history. Save this post and do future-you a favor.

(It's like a bookmark, but...not.)

I don’t give you enough credit for how great you are to me. To us. For us.

And you are great. Greater than you think you are. Greater than you know you can be.

I love you for that. For your greatness and your modesty.

I cherish the thought that I will spend the rest of my life with you.

Always.

Love,

Me
