To my husband, 8 years married

To my husband:

Filler of hand soap and bike tires

Builder of headboards (and little bike riders)

Changer of filters and light bulbs and vacuum bags

Teacher of fractions and reading (and gags)

Fixer of dryers, dishwashers and computer parts

Caulker of things that need caulk (including, sometimes, my heart)

To my husband:

(Kind) ignorer of mock ups in cardboard

Steadfast and patient when things get too hard.

(Careful) avoider of design conversation

Yet greatest supporter of my inclinations

Stepper-overer of art on the floor

Sticker-arounder when my talk is a bore

(Reluctant) acceptor of seasonal bedding

Can you believe 8 years have passed since the wedding?

To my husband:

Bill payer

Software upgrader

Garden grower

Lawn mower

Bread Baker

Iced Tea maker

Cocktail shaker

Kite flyer

Tool buyer

Tie dyer

DIYer

Rare crier

Joke teller

Great feller

I love you.

Happy Anniversary.
