A Letter to My Husband

It's Thursday, which means it's time for another one of Mama Kat's Writers Workshop. The prompt I picked for this week is "Describe your significant other's most attractive quality (on the inside)."

Michael,

You are such a wonderful husband. I know I'm not the easiest woman to deal with. I'm a control freak, needy, and happen to speak my mind more than I need. Even though things have been crazy practically ever since you have met me, you have always stayed by my side and constantly had my well-being in the forefront of your mind.

I love the way you leave me notes just to tell me that you love me. I also love the fact that you know I am always running late for work and pack my lunch ahead of time so all I have to do is grab it and go. I love you for letting me overreact when I need to and also for letting me know when I am out of line.

Thank you for being patient with me when I don't want to get out of bed on Sundays to go to church even though I know how important it is to you that we go. Thank you for rubbing my head when I get too stressed and need to calm down. Thank you for reassuring me that everything is okay when I'm not quite so sure.

I appreciate the fact that you are able to give me space when I need it as well as know when I might need to get out of the house in order to escape my bad mood. I also thoroughly appreciate you letting me take the dead duck off the wall when we changed your study into the guest bedroom. I'm sure Woody will find a place in our future home with a man room. Most of all, I appreciate the fact that even though you know every flaw in me, you chose to overlook it and marry me anyways.

Love Always,
Laura
