Happy #11 Sweetheart

Today is Brent's and my 11 year anniversary. I've thought a lot about this over the last few days, wanting to write something special, not coming up with anything and eventually letting it go. When the words aren't there they just aren't there! It doesn't mean that there aren't completely wonderful words out there that I want said and honestly feel but for whatever reason my mind couldn't pull them out of the chasm of empty headedness that for the last few days has been me! Then this morning as I was decorating for Christmas and watching One Fine Day, this song came on and I started to cry. Brent I hope you will accept someone else's words this year as a substitute to my lack of formulating my own. Their meaning is the same to me as if I would have written it myself. I love you sweetheart. Happy #11!

Have I Told You Lately
That I Love You
Written By: Van Morrison

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

For the morning sun and all its glory
Meets the day with hope and comfort too
You fill my life with laughter, somehow you make it better
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

There's a love that's defined
And it's yours and it's mine like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray to the one, to the one

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

There's a love that's defined
And it's yours and it's mine like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray to the one, to the one

And have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness, take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

Take away all my sadness, fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
Take away all my sadness, fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
