A Letter to Patti

Every special holiday or event I write a letter to Patti. I started this when we first met in 2008 and have been at it ever since. I write a letter to Patti. I started this when we first met in 2008 and have been at it since.

Some of these letters are funny. Others are a little risque, but most are just my feelings for her and the family.

I enjoy writing the letters as much as Patti enjoys getting them. The kids enjoy hearing them as much as she enjoys reading them and me writing them.

So for this Christmas Season, I thought I would share the letter from yesterday.

My Dearest Patti,

Another Christmas is upon us and it’s time for a letter again.

Where to begin?

I love you so very much. This year as been ultra hard for you with working more and having to take care of me more. I know I haven’t been the easiest to take care of or live with.

Last year I remember promising to be a better best friend, husband, dad and papa, but I don’t believe I accomplished that. Right now no promises for next year. Okay?

Every day when I want up next to you my day starts completed already knowing how much I love you. I feel that nothing can go wrong and if it does it will work itself out.

I wake up knowing that my life is in the best hands around. I know that I am loved and I love you. Sometimes I may get testy about that, but deep down I know the truth.

Most times it’s me feeling I am not worthy of that love and that’s why I lash out. Most times I am positive I am not worthy.

There isn’t a minute or day that goes by without me wondering how I can be a better person to you and the kids.

I wonder how you guys have put up with me this long. You guys are saints. I would have given up on me already. Thanks for not.

I go to bed at night thinking of all the things we didn’t get to do together. I think go things we should have done and wonder why we didn’t?

I dream about us traveling and just being together all the time. I dream about our world being without stress. I dream about a life that we can enjoy daily.

Of course, that would be pretty boring when you consider the life we live now. As I always say there isn’t a day without something going on that tests our patience.

Others may wonder how we do it and some days I wonder too. We must be incredible together. Because every day we deal with stress and still haven’t killed anyone. Even though we may be thinking about it or someone.

I don’t know what I would have done if I never had met you. My life is full and loving. I have never been loved like I am now and I have never loved as I do you.

You are my everything and always will be. I can’t see living without nor do I want to. I may bitch here and there, but don’t listen because in my heart and soul I could never love anyone else.

I never imagined loving someone could be so wonderful and being loved would be so great. what a feeling to live with everyday.

I hope that our love and understanding somehow transfer to our kids and grandkids so they can have the life we have had with each other.

I love you more, most and always Patti now and forever.
