A Letter to @_eames_
Darling,
I'm sorry that I'm not home while you're reading this, work kind of got in the way. I know you're busy this morning as well, so I took Roe in with me. Don't worry I'm working a desk job so we're both safe, and I'm working a half day so I'll be home sooner than usual. Taking Roe out for a bit of a lunch, though I know she can't eat much of what I'll be having. I promise that we'll get to spend tonight together after I get home again.
I just wanted to write this for a few reasons, first to apologize for not being home when you woke. Second, to kind of gush about how it's Valentine's day and all of that. So.. This is our second Valentine's together, the first we shared we found out that we were going to have a family together. I know it's hard for me to top that but I've worked on some ideas that I hope will be enjoyable for you.
This year we're expanding our family, I know some think it's a little too soon and feel like maybe we're rushing things. This bothered me for awhile, thinking that maybe we were rushing things even though this child wasn't entirely planned. Then I felt badly for being so happy about our marriage, our family and the life we have. But the more I thought about it, the more I laid in bed feeling sorry for myself, I realized none of that mattered. What others think about our life together? Why should it matter? I'm happy, I'm.. Beyond happy with what we have. I wouldn't want anything other than this life that you've helped to give me, I wouldn't want anyone different to be the father of my daughter and the father of the child I'll be having in a few months.
I love you, completely, wholeheartedly, and nothing is going to change that. People can say what they want about us, they can try to make me feel as badly as they want but when it comes down to it, their opinion doesn't matter. What does matter is your opinion. I know life is hectic for us, we both work demanding jobs and we don't get to spend the time together that we used to. It's been hard and.. It's taken time to adjust to it and I don't know if I'll ever be used to it but, I'll keep trying because that's what a marriage is about. Trying, compromises and loving each other no matter what is happening.
I just want you to know that nothing can change how I feel about you, or about anything we have together. I know I don't want to lose you, and will do all I can to keep you happy and to let you know every day just how much I love you.
I know this is kind of a strange Valentine's letter but, I guess there were just things I wanted to say before we got to spend tonight together. I want tonight to be special and I don't want the things I've been going through recently to ruin it. I'll be home before you know it, and Roe will be with a friend for the night so we'll have the rest of the day alone.
I love you so very much and I'll see you soon,
