Thank You, My Love

My love, my companion, my husband,
I deeply give thanks to you.
You provide my life with laughter 
And make my dreams come true.

To you I am ever so grateful,
For what you have done for me.
Together we built a foundation
For a loving family.

I thank you for being forgiving
When I often let you down.
I'm sorry for the times I hurt you
And make you feel like a clown.

The years we spend together
Get better as time goes on.
Let's continue in our endeavor
To unite and grow in love.
