It's been almost 10 years since I met him. He's changed my life forever. Gave me a family and a home. So in honor of that freekish amazing adventure... we are still living in. Drum roll...I decided to write to my Hubbs a full little black book of reasons why I love him.
For a month, I wrote a verse a day. No connection btw them really, random thoughts about us. Yes it's the corniest thing I've ever done in my life. =) Some might gag at it. (Sorry guys) Seriously proud of my intoxicating word usage virus. Shamelles girl possesed by a guilty pleasure. Writing. But only because it felt right to.
Here is the little BLACK BOOK story...
We were in the kitchen and I offered the book to Hubbs. He took it and blank stare at me. My cheeks blushing fire red. Yes, those eyes still make me blush.
"This is for me?" He asked confused" Baby I don't write... You know that..."
I smiled and said. "I know...but I do... For you... " I pointed at the book in his hands "It's full of reasons why... We make sense."
He raised that right eyebrow that quizzes me constantly and said. "I'm glad you think so Angel..."
"I think is the corniest thing ever..." I said shyly. "I mean Corney with capital letters"
"It's ..." He let out serious "Love it ... Best gift ever..." He said sitting at the table. He sat and read. It was the longest time I've ever seen him reading. Eyes lost in space. "Best gift Ever" He repeated.
My heart felt sore. The most personal gift I've ever given anybody. for $ 2.99 and 30 days of tracking random thoughts of reasons why.
Here are some of my fave lines.
