Every moment with you is time spent fully, completely, utterly.  We exhaust the seconds as they pass into minutes, hours, days…three months now, going on four.  There is no more waiting, being patient, living “in the meantime.”  It’s here, now, the life we envisioned when we were fresh faced and certain and full of expectation.  Just sitting quietly with you, sipping hot brews while the steam clears the last of the groggy night from our morning voices, makes me feel alive and vibrant with anticipation and appreciation of another chance to walk in this world with you.

I love the way you bound into a room, smiling like a Peanut’s character in mid-dance, scooping me up in your wide open arms, smooshing me into a giggling fit of unconfined joy and holding me until we both are too blissful to move.

With you, i am finally living, spending every day as if the supply of good times is infinite, not to be rationed, and never to be taken for granted.

i love life with you.
