My Valentine!

Tomorrow is Valentines Day! This will be our third Valentine's Day together for Adam and I, and unfortunately we will not be together. :( But the happy news is that we will be together again on Friday (don't know what time yet though, hopefully we will find out tomorrow). JUST FOUND OUT THAT HE IS COMING IN AT 7:20 PM ON FRIDAY!!!! We will just have an excuse to go out to dinner next Saturday.

I want to take a minute to thank my wonderful husband for being my Valentine for Eternity. I love him so Very MUCH! I want to thank him for being the one who loves me for me and for everything I do. He is always telling I can do the things which I don't think I can do....Like anatomy, he is always telling me that I can do it, even though sometimes I don't think I can. He is always there for me, even when he was out on his field exercise I got a letter that he had mailed the week before and it got to me just in time when I needed it most. To read the words, "I love you Crystal!" Him saying those words will never get old, EVER! I love hearing him say it. I remember when we got sealed in the temple our sealer told us to ALWAYS tell each other we love each other. Adam and I tell each other this all the time and we wouldn't have it any other way. I LOVE Adam with all my heart and nothing will ever change that. I truly can't imagine my life with out him in it, with out him my life just isn't complete.

I love him for everything he does, for the countless hours of sleep he has lost in order to call me at night. On a couple occasions we have stayed up till 2 am talking, which is 3 his time and most of the time after that he has to get up at 7 am on Saturdays and 4:30 am on the weekdays.

Adam is such a strong person and he makes me want to be a better person. He was brave enough to join the Army and serve his country. He left for training back in July and has been away from me and other family members since then. I know it has been a hard time on him to be away from me and other family members. The time we have spent apart has been hard on me too, but when I was feeling down I could always just turn and call my mom or someone else and cry to them. Adam had no one to turn to when he felt down. When your loved one is feeling down and you can't be there to hug them, is the worst feeling in the world.

I am so very proud of him! He has done so good during his training and he just got back from his last field exercise on this last Friday and will be graduating on this coming Friday. He passed off all his skills on the first time and has gotten really good scores on his tests.

I am so proud of him because not only will he be graduating as an Army Medic but he will be graduating with honors!!!!! I love you Adam and I am so proud to be your wife and to have you as my husband.

I can't wait for Friday to come and to see his smiling face as he comes out of the gate at the airport. When I see his smile, I can't help but smile back at him. I can't wait for him to hug tight and tell me that he loves him so very much. To have him kiss my forehead as we are hugging is something priceless and is something that I cherish.

This journey Adam and I have been on, has made our marriage, and our love for each other grow beyond measure. It has made both of us realize just how much we love each other. You can always know that you love a person and then when you are apart and then see each other again all the love you have for each other seem to grow and you KNOW that YOU LOVE them so much more than you did before. Just when you think that you can't love them anymore, you get surprised and you love them more than you ever had before.

I love you Adam with all my heart!

Thank you for being my Valentine, and I can't wait to see you on Friday!
