(This is the first picture of us ever taken. It was 2 weeks after we started dating.
He had just come in from the rain, so those are water spots on his shirt.)
...let me count the ways!
I love that Michael respects me. Simple, but HUGE. I didn't necessarily grow up in a situation where women were respected. When I tell him the car is making a noise and he says "Ok, I'll get it checked out" it makes me pause for a minute. In my head I think "really? he believes me?". When we are driving somewhere and he asks me what way I think we should go, I'm thrown off a bit. He respects me for who I am, the opinions I hold, and the ideas I share. I love that about him. I also love that he's taught me that I deserve that respect.
wow, what a great picture! Who was your photographer?
