When I say amazed, I really mean it too. There is not one day which goes by I don't think of how extremely blessed I am because of Cheryl. Now this is not to put her on a pedestal. I know she isn't perfect in the actual sense of the word, but who is really? We say things like, "Oh you're perfect baby." Or "There's never been anyone better than you." Unfortunately, these things are brought on by a little gland inside our brains which makes us "feel" in love. But shortly after the initial attraction wears off, and this gland stops secreting it's fluid, we can wake up and think, "Who is this I'm with? Their breath stinks!"
Now before you label me as some type of pig who doesn't love his wife, when I tell Cheryl I love her it is not because of this gland giving me some type of feeling, it is because despite always having a feeling I choose to love her daily. Yeah I know, that's not going to make it onto any Hallmark cards anytime soon, but it is true.
I believe from the bottom of my heart that Cheryl is the greatest woman on this planet. She's a beautiful, intelligent, funny, hard working, beautiful, smart, full of life and sass, beautiful family oriented and beautiful woman. Did I mention she's beautiful? I love my bride daily because I choose to do so.
With both of my kids fixing to get married, one of my prayers is they will experience the joys of married life like Cheryl and I have. I pray they will be able to look past the little things which will annoy each other and find in their future spouses what I have found, a true ally and my very best friend. Because in the end it's not the "feelings" which matter as much as having a partner to travel life with, who is there to help in time of need and to share some laughs as well.
Cheryl, I've said it before and I'll keep saying it as long as I have breath, baby, you're the greatest, and I love you!
