The way your face looked when you realized what "daddy" really meant.
The way you look when you don't realize I'm watching you watching me.
The way your eyes lit up when I said I'd marry you.
To Henry:
The first time we met and you did your best to not pay attention to the fact I was naked.
The way you looked when Madeline was born. (I think I fell the tiniest bit in love with you a little that day. Shut up, I'm allowed to be gentle sometimes!)
New York. Just that. New York. *snickers* You major spaz.

Henry: The first time we met and you did your best to not pay attention to the fact I was naked. - Well I wasn't quite expecting being naked, and you being naked and when you didn't cover up I TRIED to remain impartial, even with Edward nearby.
I think I fell the tiniest bit in love with you a little that day. - Really?
New York. Just that. New York. *snickers* You major spaz. - Hush. Just hush. *blushes* I didn't know what I was getting myself into now did I?

Dear Good Doctor: *SNICKERS* You thought I was hot. Admit it, motherfucker. ADMIT IT.
*FLAILS* MAYBE. Like it or not, I am partially Dawna as well, so... yes. Really.
*laughs* Oh Henry, you should have known just by how Dawna and Ash are that it was going to be insanity. Were you REALLY surprised? They were kind to you. They liked you better than they liked ME that's for damn sure!

Henry:
*goes about 5,000 different shades of red and looks away*
*watches her with curiosity and smiles softly* I love you too, in my way.
I know this, I just...wasn't quite expecting them to like me, not after they found out about Edward and stuff. Eh, I don't know. *sighs and shrugs* It all turned out for the best though didn't it.

You saving my life in every way a person CAN save another's. -You saved me in just as many ways, my love. You accepted me for everything I was, good and...not so good, and loved me anyway.
The way you gently taught each of the children the ways of the world and taught them all they could always rely on you, no matter what life threw at them - I guess it's because I myself didn't really have anyone to turn to. Our children will always have someone to turn to, both of us.
The pride in your voice when you introduce me as your wife. - Even after all this time, I still get breathless when I do that. In good ways.
Edward:
AHEM. Oh look. I'm me. Oh look... I'm me and she's... uh... you? - *snickers wickedly* And I've never regretted it!
The way you looked when Adrienne was early. I'd never seen you look scared before then, and I hope to never see it again, frankly. - No...
Family... Christmas. WTF were we thinking? SERIOUSLY. - No fucking clue but it was so fucking funny! Now...

It's not like I had a choice in accepting the bad with the good... after all, Echo... You had to accept my "bad" as well. And I'd never have changed it.
*nods* I'm glad they learned early and it was reaffirmed often for them that we would be there. It's such a gift you've given them.
Just as I get breathless when I introduce you as my husband. Especially when people get the look of recognition from your work with Nathaniel. I'm always so absolutely overflowing with pride.
Dork-ass:
I'm sure you haven't. I'd beat you soundly if you did. Or rather, I'd let HER beat you soundly. I don't need you getting off on ANYTHING I might (even JOKINGLY) do to you.
I'd hug you, but you'd probably hit me.
*facepalms* It was funny. Amazingly funny. WRONG, but funny.

No, we'd both never have to change a thing about each other because we are what we are, as one, and we love each other anyway.
*nods* Not just myself though, Dawna, but you also.
It always amazes me when people recognise Nathaniel, he's done so much hard work and I am so proud of him. But yes, I get breathless every single time, for the gift you've given me.
Edward (who ISN'T a Dork-ass, thank you!):
*laughs!* Admit it, you'd LIKE to, though, wouldn't you? *smirks*
*shrugs, and tries not to think about Adrienne being born early*
It WAS. There was so much mess afterwards.

My Saint-You were the first person to see the depth of my pain and to ask if you could help. You scared me from the start, because I knew you'd be horribly dangerous for me, but I couldn't help myself. I had to be around you to breathe, and damn the consequences.
My Sinner-Where would we be if I had never stopped you from going out that night? It was a whim, a momentary decision that I've never once been sorry I made.

Henry: I wanted to help, I needed to help. I knew it was wrong but I couldn't help myself either. I needed you more than I've ever needed anyone before, and ever will again. You're my everything, and I knew that from the moment we spoke.
Edward: Our kids wouldn't be as amazingly wonderful as they are now? *teases with a smirk* You never regret it because I'm good at what I do. *smirks more*
