When Did I Ever Feel So Grateful?

Today my husband, James, started his first day at work. He left his parent's house at 7:30 am, and returned at about 9:00 pm. I can't even tell you how amazed, proud, and grateful I am for having him as a husband. 

He's always been wiling to do anything for me, and I sometimes can't help but feel I don't deserve his love and devotion. Somehow, he seems to think the love I have for him is enough motivation, even though I think I'm more dead weight than anything else. So, I'm going to stick to thanking my lucky stars he decided to marry me.

So without further ado, here is a poem for my husband:

This life was bleak

under my sky

as I simply let

the time pass by.

You showed me

and taught me

how to really

love myself.

I never knew

til I knew you

what good loving

could really do.

Then suddenly

I loved you too.

It all made sense.

Now my life is better spent.
