Why we work

So I saw this on a few other blogs....and I wanted to join in:)
We work because we make each other laugh. He is honestly the funniest man I have ever met. He has me in tears laughing almost daily. We joke and poke fun at each other. For us, laughter is a huge part of our relationship.
We work because he is sexy. I don't really need to explain that. When I see him, I think in my head "wow he looks good!".
We work because he accepts me. He loves me for all my faults, not despite them. He has deployed for 8 months before and some of the biggest things we miss about each other are the things that drive us crazy! I miss the empty milk cartons and socks all over the house. The way he shakes his legs when he falls asleep. Those are the things that matter to us.
We work because we love family. Our children mean the absolute world to us. We want to be the best parents we can for them. Our life revolves around them. And we are both happy with that. This is what we want....to not just be him and I, but all of us. Our family as a unit is the most important to us.
We work because of the way you love our daughters. That just melts my heart. Seeing you with them is the cutest, sweetest thing. I know what a good example of love you are setting for them. They see how you love me and they are learning what to look for. They see how you love them and they know what to expect.
We work because we try. We both make an effort to let the other know they are appreciated. To let the other know they are adored. To let the other know they are loved.
We work because we are best friends. We wouldn't have made it through 8 months of a deployment if we weren't best friends. Being lovers wouldn't have been enough to be apart so long. We had to communicate like never before. We had to make each other laugh to get through the hard times. We couldn't offer each other a hug or kiss....we only had our communication. He is my best friend.
Happy Valentine's Day my love<3
