As I look back on the last 12 months, this feels more like a Thanksgiving than a Valentine's day. Our life together seems to be blossoming into some golden years far earlier than I ever expected.  We have a dream house, we have two amazingly adorable children, and we have an exciting future ahead of us.  All of these wouldn't be possible without you. You provided the inspiration and drive to change our situation and move into this wonderful home. You are the one who predominantly nurtures our boys and helps them grow and learn. Just look at how well Henry is doing and the strides he's made in the last year!  Finally, you've given me something exciting that I didn't think possible: hope for a future of our own making.

Thank you SO much for all your hard work and devotion to giving our family a nurturing foundation and a REAL shot at our dreams!  I know I don't tell you enough, but I am so grateful for all that you do. You are an amazing mother and an even more amazing wife. I am so blessed that you chose to share yourself with me.

I love you Maria, more than anything in this world.
Thank you,
