You Mean A Lot to Me Monday

I have been getting excited for today's post. After all, it is about my most favorite person. Jerry!

He is the most amazing person I know. He is funny. He sings everyday. He is smart, handsome and loving. Jerry and I have been dating 3 years and 2 months, and I couldn't imagine my life without him. He has been there for me through everything, including my junior prom, high school graduation, my mom's death, my interview for the teaching program and so much more. He has taught me so much. I can now name almost every car, make and model as we drive back and forth to Ogden. He taught me how to snowboard and he is very patient as he waits for me to catch up on the mountain. He always listens to my ridiculous theories about the earth, the stars, and the way life works. He can answer almost any question I have.

We have had some of the funnest times together. We have gone to Vegas, Florida, Idaho, Washington and Oregon together. We gambled our first time together. On our first date Jerry took us down a one way street the wrong way in Salt Lake. He told me that he had been to Salt Lake many times before, little did I know it was his first time to drive down there that day. :) He makes me laugh all the time. He plays the air guitar, tickles me and talks to me in a real deep scary voice.

He even helps me babysit! :)

My family loves Jerry almost as much as I do. My dad would do anything for Jerry and considers him part of the family. They fixed up the 1963 Beetle together, they eat giant steaks and talk about cars. My aunts even sent Christmas cards with Jerry's name on them this year.

I can be myself around him.

I can't imagine where I would be without him. He has been my strength through a lot of things and encourages me everyday. He drives me to class and helps me with my homework. I truly couldn't ask anymore of him. He puts up with me at my worst, he waits for me to get ready, even though it takes me forever, he lets me drive his car, he carries my laundry basket back and forth to the car, he lets me listen to Christmas music and he takes me to movies he doesn't want to see. He is always there for me. I love him more than anything.

He isn't even embarrassed of my lack of snowboarding skills.

Jerry,

I love you today, and everyday. Thanks so much for everything you do. You are so perfect. I am so glad you are at Weber with me, you make it so much easier to be away from home. I love the relationship we have together and I am so thankful that we can tell each other everything. I can't wait to get old with you. You are my best friend and the best boyfriend in the whole world. I have the greatest memories with you and I can't wait to see what the future holds. You are my everything Jerold. I love you.

Love, Cole

I'm gonna marry that boy some day!
