The Men In My Life...

Since today is Valentine's day I thought I would express the love that I have for the men in my life! First I want to express my love to my Best friend, my eternal companion, my husband, Nick! Nick, I love you so much! You mean the world and more to me. You have always been here for me when I needed someone the most. We have had so many great times together, the bad ones I can't really even remember! From our first blind date I knew you were special. Then I think after the 3rd date, I knew you were the one for me. Even though you didn't know, I knew it and knew I would have to let you take your time to figure it out! I would never let go of you! You are my knight in shining armor! I love you with all my heart and am so proud to say that I am your wife. You are such an amazing father to our son and I can see how much you love him just in your smile. I love that your testimony is so strong, it helps keep us on track! I hope you know how much you mean to me and how much I love you! You are my best friend forever!!! I LOVE YOU!
To my son, Crew! Crew, I know you can't read this yet but one day you will and I just want you to know how much your mommy loves you! You are the light in my life! I have wanted to be a mommy forever and you have made me one! I love having you with me at every moment of every day! When you were in my belly I would sit and wonder what you would look like, if I would be a good mom, and how I could love someone so much when they weren't even born yet. Let me tell you, I love you even more than that. I can't wait to see you grow up, but please don't grow to fast. Your smile brings so much joy to my life! I LOVE YOU SWEETHEART!

To my Dad. Dad, I just want you to know that no matter what age I am, I will always be your little girl! I love you so much and am so grateful for the love and support you have given me in my life. I have always looked up to you and wanted to find someone with your same qualities. I think I nailed it on the head, a little too much. Watch what you wish for huh? :) I just want you to know how happy I am to make you a Grandpa! Little Crew loves you so much already! He gets to hear the song that his grandpa sang to his mommy when she was growing up, and he loves it! I love you so much and couldn't ask for a better dad and/or role model for Trevor, Kennedy, and I. And also for all the grandkids! I LOVE YOU DADDY!
To my brother, Trevor. Trev, what can I say? I just love you! I love that we are only 17 months apart. It made growing up so fun! We got to share so many precious moments together that not many siblings do. You will always be one of my best friends, no matter what. I am so proud of you! You are an amazing father and husband. I am so happy to see you so happy!I can't wait for our kids to grow up and be good friends. I LOVE YOU!

To my father-in-law, Larry. Larry, what can I say? I love my in laws! You are such a special part of our lives. We love you so much and are so grateful for all the love and support you give our little family. I am so thankful that my husband had a loving father at home to show him how to respect and love women. You taught him how to be a good priesthood holder and to love the gospel. We love you so much!
To my dog, Booduh. Boody, you are my first born! You came into my life at the perfect time. You make our house feel like home! Even though you are so naughty at times, I still love you to pieces. My bestest friend! Now that you have your little brother to watch over, I can see that you are taking your responsibilities to heart. You are such a good boy! I can't imagine you not apart of this family! I LOVE YOU MOO!

You forgot Larry! Better add that one on there! Cute post, you do have some amazing men in your life. Nick is one of the best people I know and I have to say that I never wanted to give him up, not ever. But i'm happy that you make him happy. You two are great!
