Why I love him...

This is just one of the reasons that I love him so much:

We had a small e-mail thread going back and forth while he was at work and I was cleaning the kitchen. I had started asking him if I could throw certain papers away (an invoice from a dentists visit, a promotion from Wells Fargo, etc...). I came across the bracelet that I wore when Lydia got her stitches at the ER and couldn't decide what do do with it.

In case you can't see the picture, this is what the email thread says:

Shantel: Do you think I can throw Lydia's bracelet away (from the ER getting stitches)? I know some people keep those as a memento. But I honestly don't know where I would put it. I just need your approval to throw it away.
David: I, David Scott Peaden, hereby and forthwith authorize Shantel Elise Peaden to dispose of in the garbage can Lydia’s bracelet from her first ER visit. /s/ David Scott Peaden

I laughed and laughed and laughed. I love that this boy keeps me laughing and makes my life so happy.

....
And, that he is okay with throwing the hospital bracelet for our first ER visit away.
