This may be a few days late, but I wanted to write a letter to my husband on Father's Day. I know I posted here on Mother's Day about how difficult it was for me, and I think sometimes I forget that all of this is really difficult for him too. He tries really hard to be strong for me, and to not really show his dissappointment, and I love him for that.
Mr D,
I know today is hard for you. It is difficult to see the people around you being able to have something that we can't, and I know that feeling. You are the man of the house, the provider and the protector, and I know that you would do anything to be able to give me this gift that we both want so badly. I want you to know that I know you are going to be an amazing father some day. You are so loving and kind and patient, I can't wait to see you with our children. You are playful and fun and silly and I can't wait to see the relationship you will have with them someday. I dream about the day that I get to tell you that you're going to be a father, I think about your reaction and how excited you will be, excited for us. I see couples shopping for baby things and I know you will be so involved and interested. Please know that you don't always have to be strong, you can be sad with me sometimes too. Some day we will be able to start our family together, it's been a long road so far, and the end is not yet in sight, but I am so glad to be traveling it with you. Thank you for being my rock, my comfort and my light at the end of the tunnel. You're right when you say that no matter what, we are SO lucky, because we have each other.
Love always,
Mrs D.
this is so very sweet. love you guys! xo
