date night with Owen..

we have a little thing we do...owen and i

we have "date night at home"

and it involves

cooking together, yummy drinks, dessert

and we take it up to our room,

where we have a table and chairs

and we imagine that we are away from it all

and it is wonderful.

this man of mine

is my daily gift.

there is no one who completes me the way he does

i tell him often that he came into my life to

fill up the dry cracks

my heart was full of dry cracks

and he has carefully and thoughtfully

been filling them for seven years.

there is no one like him.

he is my hero

i mean really, who else takes on a single mom

with 4 kids

and devotes his young years to

caring for them and their mother

with complete selflessness and wholeheartedness?

i am amazed every day by owen

and now

i

am going to leave you and go have a date!
