I am approaching my first anniversary with my husband Aaron. I have been thinking long and hard as to what to give him for our anniversary. I am not fond of material gifts for anniversaries - I think they should be commemorated with something unique, something not-repeatable. So I thought, I will write down why I love him, I will write down without any fear of being sappy or sentimental, just what he means to me. So this is for you, Aaron, and I love you. Happy anniversary.

Reason #20
I love when Aaron reads me stories. He reads to me, he reads to the children, to us all together as a family. He reads to Anna, and he reads to himself. He likes to share things which make him think, and he likes to share things which make him laugh. It's fascinating to me that we see different things in books and that our focus is not the same, but we enjoy them together and he animates things with his beautiful face and his wonderfully expressive voice. I could sit and listen to him reading for hours and hours. I love that his voice is the last thing I hear before I sleep. It's not always the first when I wake - often it's a soft spoken, "Hi mama!" from Julia. But it's always the last.
