“Once you have mastered time, you will understand how true it is that most people overestimate what they can accomplish in a year - and underestimate what they can achieve in a decade.” - Anthony Robbins

… dance parties in the car with only our legs so other people wouldn’t see

… when I am crying and you ask why I’m leaking

… the time you used a hand mixer in the peanut butter jar and peanut butter flew everywhere

… when you stood up for me

… the night we made mac and cheese at two in the morning and ate it straight from the pot in bed

… learning to snowboard together

… the time we ordered room service

… winning all of our miniature golf tournaments, except for the first one

… your Squirrelympics outfit, especially when you said, “tell my wife to relax and enjoy the view”

… the boat ride on Lake Como when we picked our kids’ names

… the morning we realized our second floor toilet had leaked all the way through to the downstairs entryway

… weekends at The Chrysalis

… the first time I saw you on our wedding day

… the fight we had over healthcare law

… the time you let me put mascara on you

… the millions of hours we’ve spent watching Friends holding hands

… the poem you wrote and mailed to me

… when you asked me if I dream about Batman too

… the night we ate dinner under the thunder storm in Mexico

… the day Winston died

… the time you ate the bite I was saving for last

… the night we spent in Vancouver

… the Thanksgiving when we tried to cook a turkey and had to call your parents to come over to help

… when you rub my back

… the camping trip when we thought we were going to get killed by a deer

… the Navy Seal rafting trip in Hawaii

… all of the times you came to pick me up in college

… the story you wrote about our engagement saying it was the greatest thing that had happened in your life

… the road trip down the West Coast in Big Blue

… the look on your face when Christmas decorations come out each year and you can buy more lights

… the time you put olives on your sandwich and I cried

… the bar on the hill in Barcelona

… the first time I cut your hair

… when you do your gorilla impression

… the emails we wrote when I studied abroad

… the morning you broke down the door to the garage with a hammer because you had locked yourself out

… the day you arrived in Geneva

… when I ask you to tell me a bedtime story and you do

… the way you make me a better person

… the way you make me feel about myself

… the way I feel about you

… the way you love me

… the way I love you

10 years, JB. I love you. Thank you.
