Letter to my Honey:
Yes, I love you. Even when you forget to pick up your underwear and you leave it for me to do. I love you when you say everything is going to be okay even though I haven't found a job to help make everything okay and instead spend my time blogging, tweeting, and meeting friends for drinks.
I love you because you love me more than your mom.
I love you because you and I created cute kids (forget that they have also acquired our worst habits and quirks).
I love you for working your ass off, literally, and causing me to dream about fitting into YOUR skinny jeans. Lest I forget my weight loss goals.
I love you for staying true to yourself. You have always kept me waiting and I am sure you always will. Don't change for anyone, baby.
I love you for thinking I am employable: smart, quick, dependable, funny, anyone would be lucky to have me. Even though no one seems to want me.
I love you for letting me paint our house shades of the fall colors I love. I am not sure what colors you love for walls.
I love you for thinking I'm sexy - even though I don't quite resemble the 17 year old I was when I met you.
I love you for not caring about the fanciest cars, clothes, and things. When I buy you a Crossfire you'll have your own cargasm. Right? I think...
I love you for being open to me sharing all of my scandalicious thoughts with unknown and known readers.
I just wanted you to know why I love you. I am sure there are more reasons, but we are headed on a date. And I'll take actually talking to you over typing to you, via Father Internet and Mother Masses, any day.
Your loving wife,
ScandalciousK

I'll have you know, I just left a comment... I have NO IDEA where it went, it seems the cyberspace just chose to delete it! FOR THE LOVE OF PETE!
Anyways, I was waxing on and on about how you may not be 17 anymore but that you are a loving wife and mother, and extremely beautiful inside and out. Your love for your husband has always shone through in your writing and its been inspiring and honest and I appreciate that in your blog, not just in this obvious love letter to K, but in several snippets throughout ScandaliciousSuburbia and FB.
Thank you for putting so much thought and honesty in your posts. Its refreshing, its real, and I love it!
This was great.
"Cargasm". Awesome.
...and I love Kevin for spending most of Barb's dad's funeral lunch with us instead of at his mom's table! We talked in the food line and then he sat with Steve and Barb motioned to Bill and me to sit with them. I made a joke about this being like the head table at a wedding, where we didn't belong...then sat down! It was very special to have quality time with Susan and Steve...and Kevin. I just hope Kev didn't get in trouble on the drive home!
Your post to Kev was very special...it isn't any of my business but since you put it out in the universe, here I am commenting...the way you feel about each other (remember...we talked in the food line!) and about your kids is what life is ALL ABOUT...more important than money, jobs, or things. You guys have it right and I just want you to remember that, love each other... and ignore the other stuff.
Love and hugs, Elaine
Thanks to all of you for seeing the specialness between Kev and I. I think it's there for sure.
This is AWESOME. You are awesome. Kev is awesome. You are an awesome couple. Thank you for showing the world what true love looks like.
