truest

There aren't many things I know for sure.
I don't know why my toes are always cold. Always.
I don't know why I'm still tired even after taking a 2 hour nap.
I don't know why I ignore the hub's prompts to bring a coat to school but then complain I'm cold and take his. 
I don't know why feta cheese (and broccoli too for that matter) must smell gross but taste oh so good.
I don't know why seeing a baby transforms me into one myself. Facials, cooing and all. Can't even help it.
I don't know why we pray for snow, then complain when it comes.

But I do know one thing.

I DO know why I miss Australia all the time.
I DO know why cadbury chocolate melts my heart.
I DO know why I randomly crave sweet thai chili chips.
I DO know why I learned to drive on the opposite side of the road.
I DO know why I was willing to live miles and miles away from my family.
I DO know why I chose all those things.
 because I chose him.

I do know why I can push through the hard times in life.
It's because of him.

I do know why not a day goes by that I don't smile.
It's because of him. 

I do know why everything I do turns into a game or competition.
It's because of him.

I do know why I say car-a-mel and moun-t-ains.
It's because of him. 

I do know why I get butterflies when 5pm comes each day.
It's because of him. 

I do know why I try my hardest every day to be a little bit better.
It's because of him.

I do know why I take just that little extra precaution to make sure I get home safe from school.
It's because of him.

I do know why I get up every morning.
It's because of him.

I do know why I couldn't ask for a better husband, entertainer and friend.
It's because of him.

I love you Phil. 
I am who I am because of you.
