Begining to see

I am totally and completely in love with my wife. She has a tough thick set of armor and she can be a stubborn son-of-a-bitch sometimes, but when you get to know her and she trusts she can take off her protective armor she is the sweetest most caring and giving woman. She consistently surprises me.

Thank you Keri, for allowing me the time I needed to see this side of you and for being supportive as I develop and strengthen my sense of self.

Sometimes I feel I am seeing her with new eyes each day as we both grow, evolve and support each other changing into the best selves we can be for ourselves and each other. I am damn lucky to have her and I know it. I also know that she is just as lucky to have me.

Imagine me basking in the glow of self-confidence. It. feels. so. AMAZING. I can just see the teary eyed smiles of my friends that have been so supportive and instrumental in this process. Thank you for gently convincing me to step outside of my comfort zone (yes, the little push too) and for supporting me when I doubted myself. Thank you for helping me pick out clothes and for watching me awkwardly stumble through a few personal fashion shows in person AND via text. Thank you so much for being the kind of friends that have taken the time to realize that I wasn't seeing the version of me that you were seeing and for helping me see the me you see.

Lucky, Lucky me to have such an amazing wife AND the best best friends a girl could ever dream of having.
