our first valentine's day we went to see a lakers game. our fourth we were at the soho house in nyc and you wore an 'i heart nyc' shirt with the nyc crossed out and 'liz' over it in blue masking tape. life is never ordinary with you. and now we have been together for 10 years and i want you on every adventure. i love staying up late at night in bed and talking to you until we fall asleep. you make me laugh. often. thank you for this life we share. our baby girl. our disagreements. our togetherness. the comfort and support you offer me. thank you.
p.s. our friend joanna at a cup of jo, so graciously asked us to be a part of a series she did when she first married. i just rediscovered these gems (in time for valentine's day!) i love all of the advice from the other couples, especially...
elly's word of wisdom to never stop learning!
grace's advice to talk it out, go on adventures and support each other's dreams (michael is supporting mine now!)
and last but not least, anna's mantra of, 'love your other how they need to be loved, not how you need to be.' sometimes hard, but good to remember.
happy valentine's day everybody!
