reasons why

"He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.”-Friedrich Nietzsche

...because his daughters go scampering when they hear his car enter the garage
...because he presents me with a handwritten note and my favorite candy bar when I'm having a bad day
...because he works so hard every single day to provide for his family...both financially and emotionally
...because he still makes me feel weak in the knees whenever he walks into a room
...because he holds my secret vulnerabilities ever so gently in the palm of his hand
...because he's an absolutely incredible son who openly adores his parents
...because he tries to grow pineapples on our back porch
