She’s the light of my life…

Just thought I would put into words how I have been feeling lately;

Eileen went for her procedure the other day; I of course took off work so that I could be with her… I was so touched that she wanted me to be there in the room with her to hold her hand. At a few times, when the pressure was intense, she squeezed my hand; but I didn’t mind at all.. she could have squeezed for as long and as hard as she liked; I was just happy to be there for her… holding her hand.

Eileen is amazing to me… I brag about here at work all the time. When I tell people how we first met and then how we re-met, they say it sounds like something out of a movie… and that we each got each other the same Christmas gift; they can’t believe it.

I am going to reprint a poem I wrote that I sent Eileen not too long ago:

My world was dark, I couldn't see,
Then your beautiful light shone on me.
I looked up with my searching eyes
And you make me feel good inside.
The best thing that there could ever be
Is now right here inside of me.
Your light shines through the night and day
Shining hope and happiness my way.
I thanked God for letting me see
And this is what He said to me:
"If never was there any night
There would be no need for light."
Sometimes the only way to see
Is to close your eyes and feel free.
I closed my eyes and felt the light,
And my world was free of night!
The light is love, and you the heart
And you are the most beautiful part...
If you can make me feel this way
Then you must be brighter than the brightest day!

Eileen really does “light up my life”…

Anyway, it is 12:20am on Sunday morning as I write this… I was just thinking of how great she is and all the wonderful things about her and I thought, you know? This is something I should put in my Blog! So here it is…

In two weeks we are escaping for a weekend to Lake Charles… I acquired a vintage bottle of 1996 Dom Perignon Rose that I got just so that we can share..

In July, we are taking a week to go to Napa Valley! I am currently scouting some cozy Bed and Breakfasts and I think we will have a wonderful time. Of course, to me, any where we go is wonderful, as long as I can gaze into those beautiful brown eyes…
