33. That when, in the morning rush, I forget my lunch, my laptop, or something else particularly important, you bring it by my office on your way to work. And you don't complain at all and you only make fun of me just a little.
34. That when you read magazines, you fold down the pages of all the articles you think I'd like to read.
35. That last week when I called you to say I was on my way home and then, when I was almost there, I decided to call you again to ask if you'd already gotten the mail, you answered the phone with, "I got the mail," even though I've only ever once before called to ask about the mail and we don't have caller ID.
36. That my brother looks up to you like a brother.
37. That certain things you do and say never fail to make me laugh, and you know this and so embrace every opportunity to do them.
38. That the pasta salad everyone was talking about at the picnic was the one you made.
39. That you laugh at my jokes even when no one else realizes I'm making one.
40. The dancing you do in the living room.
41. That you take stunning photos.
42. The look of focus you get when you're working on a sudoku or some other puzzle.
43. That you are widely regarded as Fucking Awesome at work.
44. How freaking cute it is that you play Flight Simulator, especially when you ask me to watch you land the plane.
45. That you do yoga with me.
46. The outdoor speakers you installed because you wanted us to have music when we're in the hot tub or eating on the deck.
47. That when I'm going to be driving somewhere I've never been before, you print out a Google map and talk me through the directions and then later when I pull out the map, I see that you even marked the route with a highlighter.
48. How you can hear a song once or maybe twice and then pick up a guitar or sit down at the piano and play it.
49. That you can never remember that TSP=teaspoon and TBSP=tablespoon, and so whenever you're following a recipe I'll hear you mutter the actual letters: "One TBSP."
50. That you're always eager to travel.
51. How you change certain lyrics of songs to be something funny and then when I'm alone in the car I catch myself singing those words instead of the actual ones which causes me to roll my eyes but also giggle at the thought of you.
52. Our thing in the grocery store parking lot wherein you pick me up in the car after I've put the cart away, even if the cart corral is right next to the car, even if you only move the car forward an inch to get me - you always pick me up.
53. How totally hot you are playing an upright bass.
54. The silly sleepy things you mumble when I come to bed after you.
55. Your humility.
56. That you admit to sometimes reading the "Drama in Real Life" stories in Reader's Digest.
57. The smell of your neck when I lean in to kiss it.
Happy anniversary, beautiful man. Best four years of my life.
