Today is our 3 year anniversary and I just wanted to tell Matt how much I love and appreciate everything that he does for me and our family. I saw this on another blog and thought that is was really cute, so I thought I would do the same on ours. Matt is 26 years old, so I thought I would list 26 reasons why I love him so much.

1- I love how much he loves Eli and I

2- I love how patient he is with Lara

3- I love that he can always find something positive in any situation

4- I love that he loves his family and especially how much he loves his mom

23- I love that he can always come up with something fun to do, no matter what the situation or what we are doing.... he can make it more fun
