Dear Dad,

Loving you is one of the greatest feelings I have ever felt in my life and God has been so good that He not only let me love you, but He gave you to me and allowed us to share the rest of our lives together. When people ask me why I love you, my answer is no longer “I don’t know, I just do”, because in each and everyday that I am with you, you have given me all the reasons to say:

I love you because you do the grocery when I don’t feel like going out and is not shy about it.

I love you because you are one great family man who value family bonding very much.

I love you because you manage to become a very sweet husband and father and is not afraid to show how much you love us.

I love you because you don’t have any vices.

I love you because you are proud of me.

I love you because you are my number one supporter, though sometimes you don’t believe in me 100%.

I love you because it’s all right with you that I stay home whole day.

I love you because you are honest about my cooking, you say if it tastes good or not.

I love you because you never get mad when I don’t reach your expectations.

I love you because you make me feel so secure about your love for me as your wife.

I love you because you love me despite all the things I did to hurt you.

I love you because you accepted me during the times when I am not worthy of anyone’s acceptance.

I love you because you never let me go when I wanted to go away.

I love you because you always understand me even though my reasons are not understandable.

I love you more when you hug, kiss and tickle me when I do the dishes.

I love how you laugh on the corniest movies we watch together.

I love it when you wear your very old clothes and just laugh about it.

I love how you never fail to surprise me in every occasion.

I love it when you help me in the kitchen.

I love it that you are the kind of husband who shares in house chores.

Dad, I may not be able to enumerate all the reasons why I love you, but believe me when I say I LOVE YOU because You are You.

I know my husband doesn’t read my blog posts, so if at some point he stumbles upon my site I hope he gets to read all my CC entries. =)

It’s love month, come and share with us your 101 reasons why you love your partners.

As I read Ate Liz’s version of this week’s CC I told myself, I’m sure tonight’s gonna be a good night. =)

It’s true, saying “I Love You” or merely “Love You” is easy and we use it everyday. I can’t remember a day passed without those words coming out of my mouth ever since I met my hubby and it multiplied when I became a mom. Mark never leaves the house without saying those words and I, saying them back. We never hang up the phone without the words, “Love you, bye”.

As for Ate Liz’s question, “When was the last time you really look into each others’ eyes and say those words from the bottom of your hearts?” Oh boy, I can’t recall. As far as I remember, we say those words with full emotion and yes, with tears when we just ended up our lover’s quarrel. We then say how much we love each other and how lucky and blessed we are for having one another. But since we haven’t had any big fights for quite some time now, those intimate moments no longer happen. Now I realized, do we have to have misunderstandings before we say those words again? I hope not and I’m changing it now.

I always had the thought of making notes and sticking it on his baon (packed lunch), but have never done it ever, yet. Tomorrow, I’ll start. I think our usual sweetness needs a revamp. And because of these realizations, I really think tonight’s the start. It isn’t hard, really. But it takes some cheesiness to be able to achieve that. =)

And to add with that… here’s our keso pic for everyone:
