Today is Valentine’s Day and it’s made me think about all the reasons why I love my husband. I think as time goes on and when the dynamics of a relationship change after you have a child, it’s quite common for couples to undervalue each other and not appreciate each other enough a lot of the time. Dave usually reads all my blog posts before they go live, he’s so supportive of my blog (and anything I do, actually). He doesn’t know that I’m writing this one though, so I guess this is kind of my way of saying “I might not always show it, but I love and appreciate you so much! Happy Valentine’s Day, darling!” I know he’ll have a huge smile when this pops up in his inbox this morning.
Here are 10 reasons why I love him:
I can think of many other reasons too and I feel bad for not including some of the others like I trust him, he supports me and he makes me laugh, but these were the first 10 ones that came to mind!
What are your reasons for loving a special person in your life? I’d love to hear from you, please comment below!

Lovely post! My wife is also my best friend and I know we can face anything in life when we’re together #sundaybest

awwww you are too sweet!! I see so much of my relationship the same way. Although me and hubby started dating only 6 years ago, we’ve known eachother for 14 years so we’ve grown up together too and I love how I can be so ridiculously stupid and he joins in with me! Love how you’ve found your soulmate! #sundaybest
Thank you, I definitely have 🙂 That’s lovely, being stupid together is one of the best things! 🙂 Thanks for commenting xx
[…] has a favorite/least favorite post. Name yours and why? My most favourite posts are 10 Reasons why I love my husband and Things that have changed since I became a mum. Writing about the two people I love the most is […]
Awww what a beautiful post. I love your list of reasons why you love your husband. How lovely that you’ve been together since you were 16. Having those shared memories is such a special thing. Always nice to stop and think of the reasons why you love each other – my Christmas present last year to my husband was a little book full of all the things I love about him and I think I enjoyed writing it almost as much as he enjoyed reading it! 🙂 #bloggerclubuk
That’s such a lovely idea! Thank you and thanks for commenting 🙂 x
How sweet are you! I love that you have so many photos together, there aren’t many of Ian and I. Thanks for linking up to #SundayBest x
Thank you! 🙂 x
Beautiful post. I can say the same thing about my husband. We didn’t meet till I was 24 and already had my first my child. It definitely takes a great man to get into something like that and become a father to toddler whos father wasnt intesrested in being a part of his life.
That’s such a shame, I wonder if he’ll realise what he’s missed out on when it’s too late.
